The British military has fired gun salutes across the United Kingdom to mark the death of Prince Philip as tributes flooded in for a man who was a pillar of strength for Queen Elizabeth during her record-breaking reign.
Members of the public laid flowers outside royal residences, paying their respects to the Duke of Edinburgh, who died on Friday aged 99.
On its official Twitter feed, the Royal Family published a tribute paid by the Queen to her husband on their 50th wedding anniversary in 1997. He has, quite simply, been my strength and stay all these years, and I, and his whole family, and this and many other countries, owe him a debt greater than he would ever claim, or we shall ever know, she said. The Queen has been on the throne for 69 years.
