FILE – In this Tuesday, Nov 26, 2019 file photo, Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II visits the new headquarters of the Royal Philatelic society in London. Britain is marking Queen Elizabeth II’s 94th birthday, Tuesday, April 21, 2020, with silence, as the nation in lockdown amid the COVID-19 pandemic forgoes the usual gun salutes and ringing of bells. With thousands dead, the monarch decided that the celebratory display of military firepower would not be “appropriate.’’ Nor will there be a celebratory peal of bells from Westminster Abbey, as the church where the queen was married and crowned is currently closed.

LABIS na nakikiramay si Queen Elizabeth II sa sinapit ng mga Pilipino matapos ang hagupit ng bagyong Odette sa kasagsagan ng panahon ng Kapaskuhan.

Bukod sa libo-libong pamilyang nawalan ng masisilungan at matutuluyan, marami rin ang buhay na nawala matapos ang pananalasa ng bagyo.

Umabot na sa 375 katao ang mga namatay at 56 naman ang nawawala matapos hagupitin ng pinakamalakas na bagyo ngayong taon ang Pilipinas.

Agad namang nagpaabot ng tulong si Queen Elizabeth II at nagbigay ng £750,000 (mahigit kumulang P50 million) sa relief efforts ng Red Cross at International Federation of Red Cross.

“Today, Her Majesty The Queen sent President Duterte a message offering her condolences and deepest sympathies to all those affected by #OdettePH,” saad ng UK Ambassador to the Philippines na si Laure Beaufils.

“United Kingdom stands in solidarity with the Philippines and Filipino people in the wake of this devastating typhoon,” dagdag pa nito.
