The landing took place on the flight deck of the Royal Navy's flagship as part of intense night operations. Exercise Med Strike runs from May 5 to May 11. It brings together all elements of the Carrier Strike Group in a powerful show of force. In the waters between Taranto and Sicily, two carrier strike groups operate together. They are supported by 21 warships, three submarines, 41 fast jets, 19 helicopters, and ten patrol aircraft. More than 8,000 personnel from 12 nations are involved in the joint training.

Katy Perry halts Nevada show to ‘accuse’ fan of sending private messages to Orlando Bloom
Katy Perry paused her live show to jokingly "accuse" one of her fans of sending private messages to her husband, Orlando Bloom. The singer, 40, was performing at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise Valley on Saturday, 17 May, when she stopped mid-way through her set and crouched down to address a concert-goer. "I know why you're here. Listen, if you keep DM-ing my man... you've been doing it for months, ever since the residency," the singer said. "I’m his, he’s mine," Perry said, serving as a segue for her next song "I'm His, He's Mine."
