People on long-term sickness benefits will be required to work and may see their benefits cut as part of an “overhaul” of ******** being planned by ministers, according to the Times. The paper says Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall wants to encourage people back to work to “control a ballooning ******** bill”. In an interview for the paper, former Prime Minister Sir Tony Blair argues that a digital ID system and facial recognition cameras could help tackle crime and ******** immigration – and in the process help the opponents of populism defeat it.

And the Guardian carries a piece from its reporter in Gaza, Malak Tantesh, who was among the thousands of people able to return to their homes in northern Gaza this week following the ceasefire deal. She describes an exhausting walk to Gaza City, much of it without water, and walking through “a ghost town” in what used to be a “fancy enclave for the city’s rich”. Of arriving at her family’s home, she writes: “The only things still standing were the trunks of a walnut tree, and some olive trees that used to be in our yard. Our home was a three-storey building, and the levels had collapsed on top of each other like layers in a cake. Nothing had survived. My memories, my family’s memories and everything we owned have all been crushed and buried.”
