On Wednesday, during his first public event in London since March, he wore a black mask. Pictures from the ceremony were posted last night.
Only the abbot’s high priest and the head of the royal stables were present at the brief ceremony.
Westminster Abbey is the place where the Queen was married, said High Priest Dr. David Hoyle.
The queen left a bouquet of flowers in memory of the Unknown Warrior. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is the grave of an unidentified British soldier killed in northern France during the First World War. His body was brought from France and buried in the abbey on November 11, 1920.
The ceremony took place the day before England’s four-week quarantine quarantine went into effect.
In addition, Queen Elizabeth II is celebrating today a memorial service for those killed in wars fought by Great Britain in modern times. The ceremony was attended only by members of the royal family, politicians and veterans, who kept their distance, keeping a silence of two minutes.
Princes William and Charles, Prime Minister Boris Johnson and others invited to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph War Memorial in central London. The queen was watching from a nearby balcony.
The ceremony was usually attended by thousands of people from across the country, but the spread of the coronavirus put an end to this, Reuters notes.
Britain today registered 20,572 new cases of Covid-19 infection and 156 new deaths from the virus, according to the British government.
