Britain's Queen Elizabeth was forced to cancel a planned virtual meeting with ministers on Wednesday after being advised to rest by her doctors, a day after the 96-year-old monarch appointed Liz Truss as the country's new prime minister.
"After a full day yesterday, Her Majesty has this afternoon accepted doctors’ advice to rest," Buckingham Palace said in a statement. "This means that the Privy Council meeting that had been due to take place this evening will be rearranged."
