London: Queen Elizabeth has missed the Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph in London since she is suffering from a sprain in her back, media reports said.
Buckingham Palace said the monarch, 95, was "disappointed" not to attend the event, reports BBC.
She made the decision to miss the event "with great regret" this morning, a statement said as quoted by BBC.
In October, the Queen spent a night in hospital, after which she canceled her trips to Northern Ireland and the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, reports UNI/Sputnik.
On Oct 29, Buckingham Palace said that doctors recommended Elizabeth II to have a rest for at least two more weeks.
Remembrance Sunday is celebrated throughout the United Kingdom on the Sunday closest to November 11, marking the end of World War I.
Nowadays, the day is dedicated to the commemoration of soldiers from both the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth of Nations that were killed at war.
