"He was so focused to be the best and to take Gerwyn from being a rugby player to a world champion was a big moment for us."

The service featured performances from musicians including Billy Duffy of The Cult, and was held in Peters' home village of Dyserth near Prestatyn, Denbighshire.His widow Jules said the funeral had been planned to be "rock and roll, like a festival" - and the fans delivered exactly that.

Frontman of The Alarm, Peters died on 29 April after- his most recent illness after three decades of juggling treatment with recording and touring.The group formed in 1981, sold five million albums and had 15 Top 40 hits including 68 Guns and Rain In The Summertime.

Those gathered for the funeral chanted "going out in a blaze of glory" as a recording of his band, fronted by Peters himself, played outside the church.There was barely a dark sombre suit to be seen - instead, a sea of denim and camouflage, band t-shirts and flags.

It was followed by an emotional recording of Peters talking about his 30-year battle with cancer, watched in silence by the more than 2,000 gathered in front of a giant screen.

The crowd then parted to allow his wife, Jules, and their two sons and close family members to make their way into the Parish Church of St Bridget and St Cwyfan, where about 150 people attended the service.Israel effectively annexed East Jerusalem in 1980, in a move not recognised by the vast majority of the international community.

This latest step is a blow to renewed efforts to revive momentum on a two-state solution to the decades-old Israel-Palestinian conflict - the internationally approved formula for peace that would see the creation of an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel - with a French-Saudi summit planned at the UN's headquarters in New York next month.Jordan's foreign ministry condemned what it called a "flagrant violation of international law" that "undermines prospects for peace by entrenching the occupation".

UK Foreign Office Minister Hamish Falconer said the move was "a deliberate obstacle to Palestinian statehood".Since taking office, the current Israeli government has decided to establish a total of 49 new settlements and begun the legalisation process for seven unauthorised outposts which will be recognised as "neighbourhoods" of existing settlements, according to Peace Now.
