Daily Mail: Soldiers faint during King Charles coronation

Soldiers including a Royal Navy officer and a flag bearer fainted while waiting to take part in the return procession back to Buckingham Palace for King Charles's Coronation, Daily Mail reports.

During the service, the return procession began to form up, with the front at the top of The Mall near Admiralty Arch.

A small number of the troops waiting to take part required assistance after appearing to faint.

A flag bearer also fainted and was helped by a seaman from HMS Collingwood.

Meanwhile, just after the King and Queen's carriage rounded the corner from Whitehall into The Mall one of the horses in the procession appeared to be spooked, rearing backwards into the barriers separating the public from the route.

A female police officer appeared to be given assistance from her colleagues, limping away from the area.
