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.

A variety of topics feature on the front page. Several front pages cover the new allegations against the late Mohammed Al-Fayed. Police have said 90 women have now come forward with allegations, including an allegation from someone who – at the time – was “just 13.”

Domestic news features on the rest of the papers including the latest from No 10 and the UK-wide hunt for the Euromillions jackpot winner!

Elsewhere, most of the papers reflect on the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah which came into effect in Lebanon in the early hours of Wednesday morning.

The back pages are dominated by Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Real Madrid in the Champions League.
