the families of the a57 british service personnel who died in afghanistan that their suffering was not in vain. sticking with afghanistan, the ft covers the news that the us says a drone strike foiled fresh attack on the kabul airlift as the deadline nears. expanding on that story, the times warns that the uk is now significantly less safe after the taliban takeover of kabul. that's based on the assessment of former army commanders, diplomats and mps. the guardian says that borisjohnson and other world leaders have received assurances from the taliban that foreign nationals and those with authorisation to flee afghanistan will be free to leave. moving away from events in afghanistan, the daily mail reports on figures that show in some parts of the country less than half of patients are currently see their gp face—to—face. and finally, the mirror splashes on growing fears that the british government has not done enough

to prevent a surge in infections when children return to school. so, that was a quick little flavour of the front pages. graeme and benedicte hello. graeme, you are going to kick us off this time around. the graeme, you are going to kick us off this time around.— this time around. the ft was covering _ this time around. the ft was covering described _ this time around. the ft was covering described couple . this time around. the ft was i covering described couple hours this time around. the ft was - covering described couple hours ago. —— the strike. this was to prevent another attack on kabul. we've been aware there was an attack that killed 13 euros the troops and over a thousand —— 100 afghans. —— us troops. the us consider this to be an act of self—defense. it was and
