The world in photos: June 2-June 8

British D-Day veteran of the Normandy campaign Fred Glover, 88, of Brighton poses while watching a display by 300 multi-national paratroops in Ranville, France, June 5, 2014. Glover, of the 9th Parachute Battalion, took part in a glider-borne D-Day attack on a German artillery battery in Merville. Some 3,000 veterans are among those attending ceremonies across the Normandy coastline where Allied forces landed in the largest seaborne invasion in history seventy years ago to help speed up the defeat of Nazi Germany in the Second World War.
