A US warship made using steel salvaged from the site of the Twin Towers has arrived on the Hudson River.

The USS New York fired a 21-gun salute as it passed the site of the World Trade Centre in lower Manhattan.

Members of the New York emergency services, and families of victims of the 11 September 2001 attacks were among those who gathered to see the ship.

Over seven tonnes of steel from the fallen buildings were used in the construction of the ship.
