Many of Tuesday’s front pages cover the rising tensions between Israel and Iran. It comes after Iran launched an estimated 300 drone and missile strikes towards Israel overnight on Saturday, saying the attack was a response to an earlier strike on its consulate in Syria.
Most of the papers’ front pages feature images of Donald Trump in court – attending the first day of one of his four criminal cases. The former US president is set to be the Republican nomination for the upcoming US presidential election.
Israel’s war cabinet met on Monday to discuss their response to the unprecedented attack by Iran on Saturday – in which more than 300 missiles and drones were launched. Israel has not confirmed what they have decided to do.
