Operation London Bridge: What is happening today

Summary by Ground News

Queen Elizabeth II, the longest-reigning monarch of Britain, died on September 8 at the age of 96, at her Scottish estate, Balmoral Castle. The end of her 70-year reign set in motion an elaborate plan for the next 10 days, honed clandestinely for decades but only reported first in 2017 by The Guardian and then Politico in 2021. The protocol, including planned ceremonial and political events and the succession of the throne, is known as Operation London Bridge.
