Many of Thursday’s front pages lead on the ongoing crisis in the Middle East amid calls for the UK to ban arms sales to Israel – following the death of aid workers, including three British ex-servicemen.

Several domestic stories make the front pages including the UK’s Rwanda scheme and the upcoming UK general election.

The latest from the Premier League makes the front pages, as Arsenal are back on top of the table and Liverpool and City in joint second (only one point behind the Gunners).

Many of Wednesday’s front pages report on the Israeli air strike that killed seven foreign aid workers in Gaza. Amongst the dead were three British men – who worked as security for the World Central Kitchen (WCK) kitchen charity. Following the deaths of the aid workers, the charity has now suspended their operations in Gaza. It comes as the strip is on the brink of famine, and news of the food charity suspending operations adds to heightened fears of mass starvation. 

Monday’s front pages feature a variety of mostly political news, but almost all of them carry a picture of King Charles attending an Easter church service on Sunday. The papers note that it’s the most significant public appearance since the King revealed his cancer diagnosis. Prince William and Princess Kate – and their children – did not attend the service following the shock announcement of Princess Kate’s cancer. 

The NHS, politics, the war in Gaza, and the latest results from the Premier League also make the front splashes. 

The WSL returns this weekend with Man City looking to leapfrog Chelsea and regain the top spot – even if it’s only for a while as neither Chelsea nor Arsenal are playing WSL matches this weekend. Instead, the teams will be it out in the League Cup final – in front of a crowd of more than 20,000 football fans.

Thursday’s front pages carry various stories – mostly domestic news. Several of the papers report on UK politics, with speculation on a summer general election. There’s coverage of the backlash from the raw sewage spills, and King Charles’s upcoming Easter message.
A few of the tabloids lead on celebrity news, but all-in-all there isn’t much unity on the front pages this morning.
