The longest-reigning British monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, passed away at the age of 96.

Queen Elizabeth II, who ruled the United Kingdom for seven decades, had the longest reign of any British monarch. She passed away at the age of 96.

At her castle in the Scottish Highlands, Balmoral Castle, the queen "died quietly" on Thursday afternoon, according to royal family sources.

Now the king is her 73-year-old son Charles. He is still in Balmoral, according to officials, and will go back to London on Friday.

In a statement, Charles said, "The passing of my dear Mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a period of the deepest anguish for me and all members of my family." "We deeply lament the loss of a beloved Mother and beloved Sovereign. I'm confident that the nation, the Realms, the Commonwealth, and a huge number of people all over the world will be devastated by her passing."

Earlier on Thursday, according to officials, Elizabeth had been placed under medical observation. The palace had released a statement saying, "Following additional evaluation this morning, The Queen's doctors are concerned for Her Majesty's health and have requested she remain under medical monitoring."

Her grandson Prince William, who is currently the heir apparent, as well as other members of the royal family, had also made the trip to Balmoral. According to reports, Prince Harry, who was already in the nation for a charity event, was also on his way.

Following the announcement on Thursday, condolences poured in from all across the world, including from international leaders, cultural figures, and regular people.

According to French President Emmanuel Macron, "Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II exemplified the continuity and solidarity of the British country for more than 70 years." "I remember her as France's friend, a kind-hearted queen who has made a lasting imprint on her nation and her century," the speaker said.
