Military aircraft was spotted around Scotland yesterday, as the country prepares for the upcoming arrival of US President Donald Trump.
He is set to visit his golf courses in Aberdeen and Turnberry from July 15 to 29, with helicopters even spotted in the skies above Aberdeen Harbour as crowds gathered to wave goodbye to the 2025 Tall Ships Races.
Elsewhere in Scotland, there was a preview of Tutankhamun: The Immersive Exhibition which will soon open at Glasgow’s SEC Centre.
Also in the news yesterday was the sad death of Black Sabbath legend Ozzy Osbourne, who has died aged 76.
