The National – Horror as Israel kills 45 in refugee camp strike: ‘Burned alive’
The front page of The National leads on a large image of the destruction following an Israeli airstrike on a refugee camp in the southern city of Rafah. 45 innocent people, including women and children, were killed in the strike. The paper picks up on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s comments that the strike on the camp was a ‘tragic mistake.’
Scotland’s FM John Swinney has written to PM Rishi Sunak and Labour leader Keir Starmer demanding the UK recognise the Palestinian state.
Elsewhere, the front page features an exclusive attacking Sir Keir Starmer – who recently labelled himself a socialist. The front page says the Labour leader was accused of trying to be “all things to all people” following the comments, which come after he repeatedly praised Margaret Thatcher and said he does not mind being called a conservative.
