Monday’s front pages continue the weekend trend of no clear lead story, and instead, a variety of topics dominate the headlines. 

Kyiv and Washington set for talks this week in Saudi Arabia, report a handful of broadsheets whilst several tabloids focus on Covid 5 years on – and how the UK marked the event.

Benefit cuts, prison reforms, growing crime in the UK and the sunny weather Britain has enjoyed – all make up the domestic coverage on the front pages.

Russian forces used used chemical munitions in the area of Novodanylivka in the Zaporizhzhia Oblast on Sunday, the Ukrainian military said on Monday. “The enemy continues to use chemical munitions, violating all conventions,” said General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi, the commander of the Tavria operational-strategic group of troops. FRANCE 24 correspondent Emmanuelle Chaze explains, adding that this is “nothing new”.
