Update: The official announcement of Queen Elizabeth's death has arrived with a note from Buckingham Palace:
Her Majesty died peacefully this afternoon in Balmoral
The heir to the throne is his son Carlo, who from this moment will be King Charles III, king of England.

For some hours now, news has been spreading that is causing a sensation all over the world, but above all for the British people: the Queen Elizabeth II's health conditions are worrying.
This is what emerges from a communique very synthetic print issued by Buckingham Palace in which the doctors say they are worried about the ruler, so much so that all the children have been summoned to Balmoral, the Scottish residence in which he is currently located.
The queen is under close medical surveillance all morning
The note from the Palazzo in the afternoon read:
Following a reassessment of her status this morning, the Queen's doctors expressed concern and recommended that she remain under medical supervision
The causes of the malaise and the current conditions of Queen Elizabeth II are unknown, but this extreme reserve and the concern of Buckingham Palace do not bode well. Also because the changing of the Guard was canceled and i BBC hosts are live dressed in black.
Two days ago Lillibet, the term of endearment with which the Queen is called, had shown herself on her feet, although very fragile and thin, due to the handover to the head of the British government between Boris Johnson and Liz Truss, but has since rested in his residence without showing up in public.
The children were warned to stay with her
Doctors called the Queen's 4 children to stay with their mother in what now appears to be her bedside. Beyond Carlo, There are Anna, Andrea ed Edoardo. Just Carlo will be his heir to the throne, if he dies.
Even the dukes of Sussex, Harry and Meghan, I'm on my way to join my grandmother.
Confirmed death
At 19 pm the BBC confirmed the Queen's death, probably in the late afternoon. In confirmation of this thesis, the notice outside the Royal Palace that speaks precisely of "this afternoon".
