The jury at the Hillsborough inquests will reveal its conclusions later into how 96 football fans were fatally injured in the 1989 stadium disaster.

After hearing more than two years of evidence, the jury of six women and three men began its deliberations on 6 April and finished on Monday.
The forewoman said at least seven of them had reached agreement on whether the 96 had been unlawfully killed.
Their conclusions will be delivered at 11:00 BST in Warrington, Cheshire.
The jurors, who have spent nine full days considering a 14-section questionnaire,reached unanimous conclusions on 13 of the questions.
The remaining section - for which they were told they could return a majority decision - asks whether the 96 were unlawfully killed.
To answer yes, jurors must be "sure" that match commander Ch Supt David Duckenfield was "responsible for the manslaughter by gross negligence" of those who were fatally injured at the FA Cup semi-final between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest in Sheffield on 15 April 1989.
Jurors have also decided whether fans' behaviour added to a dangerous situation outside Sheffield Wednesday's stadium.
They have also made conclusions about whether police "errors or omissions" caused or contributed to the dangerous situation at the match and the crush on the terraces.
Based on the evidence, the jury have also decided whether police and ambulance service responses to the crushing "contributed to the loss of lives".
Coroner Sir John Goldring began his summing up on 25 January and spoke to the jury for 26 days in total.
The hearings are the longest running inquests in British legal history.
Christopher, Kevin and Stuart were from Formby -

Christopher Barry Devonside, 18

Christopher Devonside was a student from Formby, who drove to the match with his father, Barry Devonside, and friends, who all survived. He represented Ellesmere Port at cricket, athletics and football. His father, a leading Hillsborough campaigner, told the inquest his son's life was: "ended abruptly prematurely and unnecessarily because of the failures of others."
Stuart Paul William Thompson, 17

Stuart Thompson, an apprentice joiner from Formby, travelled with his brother, Martin Thompson, and friends, all of whom survived. He was one of six children, who loved animals and once kept a ferret under his bed without telling his Mum. "Stuart had the world at his feet," said Martin.
Kevin Daniel Williams, 15

A Formby schoolboy, Kevin Williams travelled to Hillsborough with friends all of whom survived. "He used to go on about football all the time," his sister Sara said. He was very close to his mother Anne Williams (pictured above) who became a leading Hillsborough campaigner before her death in 2012.
