The world is remembering the troops who stormed the fortified Normandy beaches to help turn the tide of World War II 75 years ago and give birth to a new Europe.

During the 1944 Normandy landings in France, Allied forces began liberating mainland Europe from Nazi Germany during World War II.

D-Day anniversary events are being attended by President Trump, UK PM Theresa May and French President Macron.

Watch archived video of the event.
