Iran launched a new wave of ballistic missiles targeting Israel’s major cities, including Tel Aviv, Haifa, Jerusalem, Tamra, and Bat Yam—marking the fourth consecutive day of cross-border strikes.

Monday’s front pages are dominated by the latest from the crisis in the Middle East as Iran and Israel enter the fourth day of cross-border strikes after Israel launched an unprovoked attack on Iran.

The G7 summit starts today and the current crisis will be at the top of the agenda. There are reports on the front pages that the USA is prepared to join the attacks if Americans are targeted but otherwise, neither the US, UK or any other major Western nation is joining Israel in its attack.

The tabloids use sensationalised reporting, prompting fears that an all-out war is on the brink, whilst the broadsheets have a much more measured tone in their reporting.

Tehran perceives its recent rocket strikes on Israel as “effective”, resulting in at least five fatalities in central Israeli cities including Tel Aviv and Bnei Brak.

European leaders expressed deep concern after Israel launched an unprovoked attack on Iran and have called for an immediate de-escalation.

Israel launched Operation Rising Lion on 13 June, sending around 200 aircraft to strike nearly 100 sites across Iran, including nuclear facilities like Natanz, missile bases, and residential areas.

Israel strikes nuclear sites in Iran and then calls for a state of emergency – expected retaliatory strikes from Iran. Netanyahu claims the attack on Iran was necessary because Iran threatens Israel’s very existence.
