The United Kingdom raises the flags again after the end of mourning for Elizabeth II

MADRID, 20 Sep. (EUROPA PRESS) - 

The British flags fly again on public buildings in the United Kingdom from the top of the mast, after the official end of the period of mourning decreed for the death of Queen Elizabeth II, who died on September 8 at Balmoral Castle (Scotland) .

The British Royal House, however, will still observe another week of mourning, in such a way that the flags will continue to fly at half-staff in the official residences until September 27. During this time, no public events are expected from leading members of the royal family, according to the BBC.

The country tries to recover its pulse after ten days of uninterrupted tribute to Elizabeth II, buried on Monday at Windsor Castle, hours after a state funeral held in London, at Westminster Abbey, in the presence of fifty international leaders .

The Government estimates that at least 250,000 people paraded before the coffin of the late queen during the four days that the burning chapel installed in Westminster lasted.
