This year marks 80 years since the World War II D-Day landings, commemorations taking place in France this week. 

At least 25 Heads of Government or State are expected to attend, including US President Joe Biden and King Charles.  

The ceremonies began this morning with parachutists jumping from World War II-era planes into the skies above Normandy. 

Europe Correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking that the main focal point of the commemorations will be on Thursday, the actual anniversary.
