What's with all these Fighter Jets over the city?

Today, from 11:55 am to 12:05 am, I noticed 7 or 8 fighter jets, at an interval of about 2 minutes, fly over the city. They came from the east and turned west over my house.

What's with them?

Think they are preparing for the Indepedence Day celebration on the 18th of this month.

They will put some kind of show for everyone.

Have a nice day!
