GB News: Sadiq Khan issues blow to commuters as he raises daily Tube cap by 70p
Sadiq Khan issues blow to commuters as he raises daily Tube cap by 70p
London Mayor Sadiq Khan has announced a 4.6% fare increase for Tube and TfL rail services, effective March 2, despite previous commitments to keep prices frozen. Daily caps will rise by up to 70p, with the increase aimed at securing future transport funding.

Bus fares will remain unchanged at £1.75 for unlimited journeys within an hour. Critics argue that the fare hike disproportionately affects wealthier commuters, while Khan insists the funding is necessary for key transport projects.

Times Of Israel: UK think tank: Gaza death toll inflated to defame Israel for targeting civilians
UK think tank: Gaza death toll inflated to defame Israel for targeting civilians
A report by the Henry Jackson Society claims that the Palestinian death toll from the Gaza conflict includes thousands of individuals who died from natural causes and inflated figures, particularly among women and children. It argues that international media often rely on Hamas's manipulated statistics, failing to differentiate between civilian and combatant casualties.

The report suggests that the Gaza health ministry's methodology is scientifically invalid and has historically concealed combatant deaths. It notes that Israeli and U.S. intelligence estimate that around 17,000 of the reported casualties are Hamas fighters, a detail frequently omitted in media coverage.
