UK media continued its extensive coverage of the Manchester synagogue attack, with initial reports naming the suspect and the two victims. The morning saw Israeli voices criticizing Keir Starmer for a perceived failure to address antisemitism. The Home Secretary also demanded the cancellation of pro-Palestine marches.
The narrative shifted dramatically mid-morning with police admitting that one of the synagogue victims was killed by police gunfire. This development dominated headlines throughout the day. By the late afternoon, it was reported that the attacker was on police bail for alleged rape at the time of the rampage. The day concluded with Donald Trump calling for Israel to cease bombing Gaza after Hamas agreed to release hostages, and news of Diddy's four-year prison sentence.
