　　On November 14, local time, Buckingham Palace announced that due to a sprained back, Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom would cancel the schedule for attending the National Memorial Day on that day.

The Queen of England was suddenly hospitalized for one night last month and was advised by a doctor to rest for a while. The commemoration on the 14th was the first time she planned to make a public appearance since she was hospitalized.

　　Buckingham Palace issued a statement on November 14 stating that the Queen was deeply disappointed that she had missed the commemoration held at the Peace Memorial in London that day.

A Buckingham Palace source said that the Queen’s sprained back had nothing to do with the illness that led to her hospitalization last month, but was merely an "unfortunate coincidence."

　　The 95-year-old Queen of England went to the hospital for a "preliminary examination" on October 20 and spent the night in the hospital.

Since being hospitalized, she has been absent from the United Nations Climate Conference and the commemorative activities held in the Albert Hall. Now the cancellation of the public appearance plan will make the outside world more worried about her health.

　　According to reports, the United Kingdom’s National Memorial Day is November 11 each year to commemorate the soldiers and civilians who died in World War I, World War II and other wars; the main commemoration is held on the nearest Sunday, which is called this day. "National Sorrow Sunday".

According to tradition, members of the royal family, government and military officials will participate in activities with veterans.

　　Wearing black clothes and red poppy flowers every year to participate in the National Memorial Sunday commemoration, has become one of the iconic images of Elizabeth II since his ascension to the throne 69 years.

Prior to this, she had only missed six national death Sundays, four of which were due to performing royal duties overseas and two were due to pregnancy.
