'Gray ousted' and 'Israel remembers'
· BBC NewsSue Gray quitting as the prime minister's chief of staff is the main story on almost all of the front pages. The I calls it a "Downing Street power struggle". The Sun says her stepping down was the "The taming of the Sue". An ally of Ms Gray tells The Times she was ousted in a "coup" orchestrated by supporters of her replacement, Morgan McSweeney. The Daily Telegraph says while her decision to quit was presented as her own, it has spoken to multiple sources who believe that Sir Keir Starmer asked her to move on.
The editorial in the Daily Mirror says that with a "fresh start", the government has a chance to "restore trust" and "deliver on its promises". But the Conservative leadership candidate, Robert Jenrick, tells the Daily Express that it feels like Sue Gray fled a "sinking ship". Another contender to be the next Tory leader has also weighed in. Kemi Badenoch tells the Daily Mail that hiring a former top civil servant in a political role of chief of staff showed that Labour had "no principles".
Several of the papers highlight surveys that show an upswing in support for James Cleverly to become the next Conservative leader. The I points to polling conducted on its behalf by BMG research which suggests he's the preferred candidate among both Tory voters and the wider public. The article doesn't say how many people were questioned in the study. The Express points to a survey of hundreds of grassroots Tory members, conducted by the website Conservative Home, who say Cleverly is now their second choice, behind Badenoch.

Several papers lead on the first anniversary of Hamas attacks in southern Israel. The Guardian says the Israeli authorities are on the lookout for further violence timed to coincide with the commemorations. A picture of a memorial to the victims features on the front of the Financial Times. A relative of one of them is quoted as saying "there was a catastrophe here" on "one of the most heinous days in world history".
The former Israeli Defence Mminister, Benny Gantz, has written an article for the international edition of The New York Times. He argues that now is the time to act against Iran, which backs Hamas. He says it's "not only a matter of necessity for Israel" but also one "of moral clarity for the world for the sake of peace and prosperity in the Middle East".
The front page of the Daily Star says scientists are attempting to bring back beavers from extinction that were 5ft tall with 9in front teeth. It says the "buck-tooth dam builders" are thought to have died out about 10,000 years ago. It quotes a researcher from the US genetic engineering company, Collosal Biosciences, as saying that stem cell breakthroughs mean the return of many extinct species is now "closer than people think".
