Newspaper headlines: 'Stop veterans witch hunt' and third jab for over-50s
By BBC News
image captionCalls for the "witch hunt" of soldiers who served in Northern Ireland to stop is the lead in the Daily Telegraph. The paper says campaigners and military leaders have demanded an end to prosecutions after the first of a series of trials "collapsed in just six days". Two men who served during the Troubles were acquitted on Tuesday of the murder of an Official IRA man 50 years ago.
image captionThe same story makes the front of the Daily Mail, which says that the trial of the two former paratroopers "sensationally" collapsed after the trial judge ruled that crucial interview evidence was inadmissible. The paper says it raises "grave questions" as to why prosecutors pursued charges against the pair, now in their 70s, for five years.
