Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II has died at the age of 96, according to Buckingham Palace.
Her death brings to a close a reign that spanned seven decades and made her the most recognized woman in the world.
As monarch, the Queen is automatically granted a publicly funded state funeral. Details for the funeral are expected to be released by the palace soon.
Her eldest son, Charles, immediately became King of the United Kingdom upon the death of his mother.
There’s an unprecedented level of detail and colour in this latest exploration of the 110-year-old shipwreck. The newly released footage opens by panning up the Titanic’s bow, which famously sank first after the British passenger liner hit an iceberg on the night of April 15, 1912.
Features of the ship, such as the name of the anchor maker, Noah Hingley & Sons Ltd on the port side anchor, are now visible.
Boris Johnson’s successor as British prime minister will be Liz Truss, a low-tax evangelist who models herself on Margaret Thatcher. She becomes the third female in British history to be elected as Prime Minister.
