The remains of French and Russian soldiers who died during Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow in 1812 were Saturday laid to rest with military honours in a rare moment of unity between the two countries.

The snow fell and a military band played in temperatures of minus 15 degrees Celsius (5 degrees Fahrenheit) as uniformed pall-bearers carried eight flag-draped caskets at a cemetery in Vyazma, a town more than 200 kilometres (120 miles) west of Moscow.
