WWII was a global conflict on June 6, 1944. The Normandy landings included operations throughout the European theater. There was no close air support during the landings to avoid friendly fire casualties on the beaches and to the paratroop divisions further inland. Early air strikes were directed at troops and infrastructure that Germany needed to move reinforcements to the defense of the Normandy peninsula, and at maintaining the ruse that the main attack would be a landing near Calais where Germany had placed its elite troops. Later strikes were made to help the invasion force break out of its beachhead. The direct answer to your question would be a meaningless list England France Germany Belgium Netherlands Denmark Italy Philippines Japan and so on if you could scour military archives for all the operational reports from that day.
