There's been an outpouring of tributes to Jimmy Carter, the former US president who has died at the age of 100. He died yesterday, just under three months from his last birthday. (1 October 1924 - 29 December 2024).

US President Joe Biden describes Carter as "a man of principle, faith and humility," while President-elect Donald Trump says Americans owe Carter a "debt of gratitude".

A National Day of Mourning will be held on 9 January, and Biden announced there will be a state funeral.

The Democrat's one term in office, from 1977 to 1981, included brokering a landmark peace accord between Egypt and Israel.

He also dealt with a struggling US economy and a disastrous attempt to free American hostages seized in Iran.

In later life he became a tireless worker for peace, the environment and human rights, for which he was recognised with a Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.
