London turns into an impenetrable fortress .. world leaders arrive for Queen Elizabeth's funeral, coinciding with the largest protection plan

London turns into a source fortress, and the funeral of Queen Elizabeth requires greater security alert, and tomorrow, Monday, will constitute an exceptional security challenge for the British capital, London, represented by the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II. For that occasion, Britain developed a plan described as the largest operation to control security and protection in the history of the Kingdom since World War II.

The United Kingdom will witness a state funeral, the first since World War II, specifically since the funeral of former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 1965.

Consulting the Queen of procedures before her death

According to the "Washington Post" newspaper, Britain's Queen Elizabeth II was consulted before her death about all arrangements, except for the security aspect, apparently.

British security expects the country to witness the largest operation to control security and protection in the history of the Kingdom in six decades, with official expectations for the attendance of hundreds of guests from more than two hundred countries, not to mention millions of people waiting to be crowded in the streets of London.

In the face of these expectations and their sensitivity, the police are trying to achieve a balance between safety, security and ceremonies for the success of the funeral activities.

And tomorrow, Monday, the expected day, snipers will be stationed on rooftops in London, while drones will hover over the area, and ten thousand police officers in uniform, as well as thousands of officers in civilian clothes, will participate among the crowds.

A few days ago, the police, through their patrols and trained dogs, combed the main areas after calling in all its members for help.

It is also noted that police personnel came from every corner of the country to help. From the Welsh Cavalry, to the Royal Air Force, more than 2500 regular military personnel will be on standby at any moment.

Officials from Britain's domestic and foreign intelligence agencies, MI5 and MI6, also review terrorist threats as part of the massive security team working at the funeral.

No junior royals are expected to attend the funeral, including the children of Crown Prince William or the children of Prince Harry, and the children of Zara Phillips, the queen's granddaughter, given their young age.
