The UK’s prime minister, Rishi Sunak, has said it was a "mistake" to leave D-Day commemorations in France early.
Mr Sunak returned to the UK early on Thursday, from events in Normandy marking the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings.
It later transpired he’d taken part in an ITV election interview.
After apologising, Sunak says people "can judge me by my actions when it comes to supporting the armed forces".
The UK will hold a general election on Thursday 4 July, which all parties are currently campaigning for.
