Browsing: Israel attacks Iran

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.

Friday’s UK news is dominated by Israel’s attack on Iran – and analysis into whether the attack might spiral into a wider conflict, the Air India plane crash in which one person – a British man – remarkably survives. The media are assessing what might have caused the crash and attempting to assign blame. Also topping the UK news, is the major blood cancer breakthrough as a new therapy is rolled out on the NHS in a “world first.”
