More than 70 aircraft will join a royal fly-past to celebrate the UK's Queen Elizabeth II’s platinum jubilee.

Aircraft from the Royal Navy, the Army and Royal Air Force will soar over Buckingham Palace on Thursday June 2, the Ministry of Defence said on Monday.

The display will feature the Red Arrows aerobatics team, Second World War planes and aircraft used by the British military on operations around the world.

“I'm proud that the armed forces are leading the nation in celebration with such a spectacular display,” said UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.

“Throughout the platinum jubilee celebrations, we will all enjoy the expertise, skill and talent of our armed forces as we celebrate Her Majesty's 70 years on the throne.”

The fly-past will take six minutes to fly over the crowds gathered outside the queen's London palace. It is expected to include more than three times the number of aircraft that took part in the monarch's last birthday parade fly-past in the UK capital in 2019.

The display will include helicopters from the Royal Navy and Army and RAF aircraft jubilee seen responding to events in Afghanistan and Ukraine and the coronavirus pandemic.

The fly-past will also include highlights from the history of the RAF, including aircraft from the Battle of Britain in the Second World War.

It will follow the queen's Trooping the Colour birthday parade — a display of military pageantry involving 1,500 soldiers and 250 horses from the Army's Household Division on Horse Guards Parade.

The monarch has limited the Trooping the Colour balcony appearance to working members of her family, with the Duke of York and Duke and Duchess of Sussex missing out.

Although they will not be on the balcony, Harry, Meghan and their children will attend the celebrations, but it is not known which elements of the four-day jubilee weekend they could make an appearance at.

Joining the Queen on the balcony for Trooping the Colour will be the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, the Princess Royal, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke of Kent, Princess Alexandra, and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence.

Also set to appear for the historic occasion will be the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, and the Wessexes' children Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount Severn.

1. Black holes are objects whose gravity is so strong not even light can escape their pull

2. They can be created when massive stars collapse under their own weight

3. Large black holes can also be formed when smaller ones collide and merge

4. The biggest black holes lurk at the centre of many galaxies, including our own

5. Astronomers believe that when the universe was very young, black holes affected how galaxies formed

Who has been sanctioned?

Daniella Weiss and Nachala
Described as 'the grandmother of the settler movement', she has encouraged the expansion of settlements for decades. The 79 year old leads radical settler movement Nachala, whose aim is for Israel to annex Gaza and the occupied West Bank, where it helps settlers built outposts.

Harel Libi & Libi Construction and Infrastructure
Libi has been involved in threatening and perpetuating acts of aggression and violence against Palestinians. His firm has provided logistical and financial support for the establishment of illegal outposts.

Zohar Sabah
Runs a settler outpost named Zohar’s Farm and has previously faced charges of violence against Palestinians. He was indicted by Israel’s State Attorney’s Office in September for allegedly participating in a violent attack against Palestinians and activists in the West Bank village of Muarrajat.

Coco’s Farm and Neria’s Farm
These are illegal outposts in the West Bank, which are at the vanguard of the settler movement. According to the UK, they are associated with people who have been involved in enabling, inciting, promoting or providing support for activities that amount to “serious abuse”.
