Main News: Scots Stranded in War Zone
The Daily Record's front page on Monday, March 2, 2026, leads with "20,000 Scots TRAPPED IN THE WAR ZONE" in the Middle East. The primary image features Rangers legend Graeme Souness, who recounts hearing explosions at Abu Dhabi airport, accompanied by an inset photo showing a dramatic plume of black smoke rising from a city, illustrating "Iran's bombs." Inside the paper, this reflects ongoing retaliatory strikes, with the UK launching an operation to support thousands of Britons. National reports also confirm a suspected drone strike on a UK RAF base in Cyprus.

A secondary headline covers the "sore draw" in the Old Firm derby, depicting players from the "bad-tempered" Rangers 2 Celtic 2 match. This result is highlighted inside the paper as advantageous for title frontrunners Hearts.
