Bastille Day: French-built rafale jets soar over Paris

Swooping warplanes, axe-carrying warriors, a drone light show over the Eiffel Tower and fireworks in nearly every French town… France is celebrating its national holiday Monday with 7,000 people marching, on horseback or riding armored vehicles along the cobblestones of the Champs-Elysees, the most iconic avenue in Paris. The Paris event includes flyovers by fighter jets, trailing red, white and blue smoke.
