The Prince and Princess of Wales are pictured on a number of Sunday's front pages, after they joined King Charles III and Queen Camilla at the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance. The Royals paid tribute to serving and former military personnel "and listened to stories from veterans told through letters sent home to their family members", the Sunday Telegraph reports.

The Sunday Express reports that veterans face average waits of "more than nine months" to be compensated for their physical and mental injuries, with campaigners urging Prime Minister Andy Burnham to take urgent action on the "battle with bureaucracy". A Ministry of Defence spokesperson said it was working at pace to deliver compensation to those eligible "as quickly as possible, using overtime and weekend working to tackle outstanding claims, while prioritising those who are terminally ill".

The Sunday Times carries news which broke late on Saturday of a Briton "killed in the centre of Krakow by a gunman", according to Polish authorities, alongside five others. The paper also reports that the Duchess of Sussex "wants to help the FBI investigation into her father" who has been charged with possession of child abuse images, citing "a source close to Meghan". Thomas Markle has previously denied wrongdoing. It also reports that Russell Brand's barrister "tried to have his case thrown out" by accusing journalists who exposed the comedian of criminality.

Russell Brand's conviction on charges of rape and sexual assault leads the Daily Star. It splashes on an interview with Georgina Baillie, whom Brand spoke about using lewd language during a BBC radio broadcast in 2008. Baillie says "justice has been served", the Star reports.

The Sunday Mirror leads on its interview with the prime minister, who tells the paper that deals with the EU "will pay off for families across the UK". The paper reports that Burnham will use a summit in Brussels on 20 November to "pave the way for closer ties".

Palestine Action co-founder Huda Ammori features on the front page of the Observer. She is currently challenging the group's proscription at the Supreme Court. Ammori tells the paper that Palestine Action's banning under anti-terror laws last year was "beyond our comprehension".

The Mail on Sunday splashes on a survey conducted by ex-Conservative deputy chairman Lord Ashcroft, which it says places Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch ahead of Reform UK leader Nigel Farage. It also trails to a story about Russell Brand's wife, Laura Brand, ahead of his sentencing on Monday.

The Sun on Sunday leads on some entertainment news, as it reports that former Strictly Come Dancing star Ola Jordan has "furiously accused" her husband James of an affair. "You cha cha cheat", is its headline. He denies anything happened before they separated in August.

Task Force Iron Gate: US expands Iran blockade, tightens squeeeze, as Tehran lifts missile limits. Is another war looming?

The United States has expanded its pressure campaign on Iran by creating Task Force Iron Gate to disrupt weapons and sanctioned materials moving across Iran's land borders and the Caspian Sea, while Tehran lifted its self-imposed 2,000km ballistic missile range limit and warned of retaliation without geographical limits, as Qatar-led diplomatic efforts continue.

Netanyahu's opponent will try to form a government in Israel without changing the Palestinian impasse

Israeli President Isaac Herzog chose Gadi Eisenkot to try to form a new government, possibly replacing Binyamin Netanyahu. For the Palestinians, it's good news, but not great news: neither advocates an independent Palestinian state or seriously discusses the historic demands of the Palestinians, including the right of refugees to return. Eisenkot needs at least 61 of the 120 seats in Parliament to govern and has 28 days to close the coalition.
