The main Remembrance Sunday service took place on November 10 at East Ham Cenotaph in Central Park.
Members of the Royal British Legion paraded from Newham Town Hall before the service, which involved a two-minute silence and the laying of wreaths.
Newham mayor Rokhsana Fiaz was in attendance and she posted on X: "Remembrance Sunday in solemn tribute to honour those from our country and Commonwealth who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
"Never again is our commitment and that also requires courage for peace."
