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.

Prince Philip wanted to die in his own bed and on his own terms .
The 99-year-old Duke of Edinburgh - who passed away at Windsor Castle on Friday (04.09.21) - spent almost a month in hospital earlier this year, where he was treated for an infection and a heart condition, but he was determined to get home.
A source told The Daily Telegraph newspaper: He spent most of the four weeks he was in hospital trying to get home. They operated on his heart in a bid to give him a little longer, maybe with the 100th birthday in mind. But he didn t really care about that. There is no way he would have wanted to die in hospital.
