Tributes from around the world are paid to Queen Elizabeth II, who has died at the age of 96. She was Britain’s longest-reigning monarch and is succeeded by King Charles III. We look at her impact beyond the UK, speaking to Stephen Katende from Kisoboka Africa, an educational charity in Uganda which benefited from from the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust. EU ministers press for the introduction of a cap on Russian gas at a meeting in Brussels.
