Donald Trump has rejected Iran’s latest offer, citing dissatisfaction and ‘disjointed’ leadership. He pointedly noted that options include making a deal or escalating military action. As the situation develops, governments are drafting contingency plans to address potential supply chain disruptions.

For a third day, the latest developments in the Middle East find a prominent place on the UK front pages. Many of the papers report the latest strike is taking the region a step closer to an ‘all-out war.’

A BBC investigation into Mohammed Al Fayed – the former owner of Harrods – makes several of the front pages. The papers report the BBC’s investigation found more than 20 female ex-employees say Mr Al Fayed sexually assaulted or raped them.

Friday’s papers also feature a dash of domestic politics as the Tory leadership race heats up and speculation over the upcoming Budget continues to cause fear and worry.
