Celebrated singer Beyonce has urged fans to stay ''aligned and focused'' in their battle for ''real justice'', even though there is a ''long road ahead''.

"The world came together for George Floyd," Beyoncé wrote alongside an aerial photo of protests in Minneapolis, where the African-American was killed by police officers on May 25.

"We know there is a long road ahead," she continued. "Let’s remain aligned and focused in our call for real justice."

Her post comes a week after she had urged fans to sign a petition calling for justice for Floyd.
