Knifepoint robberies have decreased by 20% in hotspot areas across the UK, including London, compared to June 2024, according to Home Office data. This decline coincides with National Knife Crime Awareness week and the bi-annual Operation Sceptre, which has led to 243 arrests and the seizure of 159 knives this year.

Almost all of Monday’s front pages lead with the ousting of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and what the future now looks like for a liberated Syria. Some of the front pages note Assad has fled to Moscow whilst others question whether worse is to come as the rebels take charge.

Only a handful of tabloids lead on other news including the car crash involving a Premier League player, a story of a young girl who died of cancer and the storm that battered Britain over the weekend.

The back pages are dominated by the weekend’s Premier League action, most notably Chelsea overturning a 2-0 deficit to beat Spurs 3-2.
