The Council of Ministers today approved the official declaration of mourning for those who died due to COVID-19 pandemic. Mourning is established from 00:00 hours on Wednesday, May 27, 2020 until 00:00 hours on Saturday, June 6, 2020. During this ten-day period, the national flag will fly at half-mast abroad and with a crepe on the top of the mast inside, in all public buildings in Spain as well as in Diplomatic Missions, Permanent Representations and Consular Offices.

Also, this Wednesday, at 12 in the morning, there will be a minute of silence in memory of the deceased that will be general and extendible throughout the country. All public and private bodies and institutions in Spain, both in Spain and abroad, and all the staff of this Ministry, from wherever they are, are invited to join this tribute, stopping the activity during that minute as an act of deep respect.
