The state funeral of USA's former president Jimmy Carter is being held on Thursday in Washington DC – and all the country's former or current presidents who are alive are in attendance.

Among others, USA's incoming president Donald Trump and Barack Obama, who was president between 2009-2017, are sitting next to each other. At the front are the country's outgoing president Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris with their respective spouses.

The former presidents Bill Clinton and George W Bush are also in attendance.

Jimmy Carter was the 39th president of the USA, and a Nobel Peace Prize winner.

The state funeral is taking place after he lay in state.

Carter, who turned 100, will then be buried in his hometown of Plains alongside his wife Rosalynn Carter.
