Original Summary
British air traffic is "out of control", writes the Metro, after a second glitch to the control system this month grounded "thousands" of flights. Now, it says airline chiefs are calling for the boss of the National Air Traffic Services (Nats) to be sacked. Transport secretary Heidi Alexander has called the outage "deeply frustrating". Also on the Metro's front page, "Cindy's agony" as Presley Gerber, son of supermodel Cindy Crawford, has died aged 27. The lead story for the Telegraph is Prime Minister Andy Burnham's decision to send "RAF to help Saudis" against the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen. The PM said he had agreed to give refuelling support to Saudi jets on advice from Defence Secretary Wes Streeting and Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband. The Times also leads with "military aid for Saudis", quoting Burnham as saying that getting oil flowing will help the cost of living. This is his "first big foreign policy intervention", the paper notes. Also on its front page, The Times reports that most inmates freed as part of the early release scheme will not be given a tag before their release. The paper says the Probation Service does not have capacity to fit monitoring tags before releases begin on 1 October and that released inmates will instead be tagged "once in the community". The Guardian too has British support for Saudi Arabia as its top story. It also notes the PM has said he will use his first meeting with US President Donald Trump to urge him to end the conflict in Iran. In domestic news, Martha's Rule, which allows patients, staff and relatives to request a review of their care, is being expanded across all A&Es in England. The Independent echoes several other fronts with Burnham's announcement about aid to Saudi Arabia, which comes as he prepares to meet Trump at the UN in New York City. The paper also carries a striking image of a burning building following a Russian attack on Zaporizhzhia on Monday. In other NHS news, the Daily Mirror reports that the health service "needs 55,000 more nurses". A "damning" report found that the shortfall is double the advertised vacancies, "putting patients at risk". Like several of Tuesday's papers, it also previews the upcoming season of the Celebrity Traitors, due to start on 1 October. On the front page of the Sun is a call for a retrial for nurse Lucy Letby by a doctor who originally accused her. Now, Dr John Gibbs tells the paper he is "not sure of guilt". Letby is serving 15 whole life sentences after she was convicted of the murder of seven babies and the attempted murder of seven others. The Daily Mail says there is a "new small boat farce" after it reports a dinghy carrying "up to seven migrants" landed unintercepted near Folkestone, Kent. It reports five of the occupants were apprehended "only after a GB News producer alerted the authorities". The UK has fired a torpedo from an undersea drone in what The i Paper says is a "new warning to Putin". This was the first test of the "XV Excalibur" drone, it adds. The Financial Times reports that "Kremlin-aided forgers moved $7bn through global banks". The Kremlin-backed fintech company "tricked its way" into Standard Chartered, Citigroup and other international banks in a case of "old-fashioned money laundering". In an exclusive for the Daily Express, leader of the Conservatives Kemi Badenoch tells the paper "more freedom [is] given to new arrivals in Britain than British citizens." She was pictured with residents of Piddington, who have voted to leave the UK in a symbolic referendum to protest the government housing migrants nearby. "Racing done for!" laments the Daily Star as the head of Betfred, Fred Done, says he "won't sponsor the Derby if bet shop tax rises". The Star says his sponsorship warning applies to racing's five Classics. Sign up for our morning newsletter and get BBC News in your inbox.
