Daily Star - Bigly trouble
Summary of the front page

Two men rescued from Nepal hydropower tunnel nine days after floods
What’s going on?
Two men were rescued from a hydropower tunnel in Nepal after being trapped for nine days following devastating floods. The rescue operation concluded successfully, with both individuals located and pulled from the site. This incident has gained significant media attention due to the dramatic circumstances of their entrapment.
The BBC emphasised the ongoing rescue efforts, stating: “Nepal rescuers try to reach dozens trapped in tunnel after two found alive.” In contrast, The New York Times focused on the outcome, reporting: “9 Days After Flood, Two Men Are Pulled Alive From Mud-Filled Tunnels in Nepal.” This reflects differing emphases on the rescue process versus the successful result of locating the trapped individuals.
