King Charles III's health is reportedly declining, prompting Buckingham Palace to regularly update plans for his funeral, known as "Operation Menai Bridge," which began the day after Queen Elizabeth II's burial. The 75-year-old monarch announced a cancer diagnosis in February and has since been keeping a low profile. Insiders describe the situation as serious, although the nature of his cancer has not been disclosed, except that it is not prostate cancer. While sources note that the king is responding well to treatment, preparations for his funeral have intensified as a precaution. The meticulous plans, based on Queen Elizabeth's funeral, involve military and security operations on a grand scale to ensure everything runs smoothly.
