Israel still dominating headlines
The repercussions from the Israel's military operation against an aid flotilla for Gaza continue to be widely reported in Wednesday's papers.

The long term credibility of oil giant BP is now at stake following the fall in its share price, says the Times.
The Daily Express reports that BP has "the smell of death about it", and pension funds will be hit.

Mr Kinloch's father tells the Sun that at least his son fulfilled his ambition and "stood on top of the world".
