On June 6, 1944, 80 years to the day, Allied forces landed on the beaches of German-occupied France. World leaders including US President Joe Biden and British monarch King Charles III commemorated D-Day's 80th anniversary and expressed a 'profound sense of gratitude' to veterans. Britain paid tribute on Wednesday to those who took part in D-Day, promising to "always remember" the sacrifices made by the Allied soldiers who invaded France by sea and air to drive out the forces of Nazi Germany.
