HEIDI COLLINS, CNN ANCHOR: Let's check in now with what's making headlines overseas this morning in the "Euro Edition."
Becky Anderson is live in London.

So what are on the front pages this morning -- Becky?

BECKY ANDERSON, CNN CORRESPONDENT: A very good morning to you.

Midmorning here, and the papers really doing the story of the weekend, the story of the Israeli suicide bomber, and of course, the Israeli incursion into Syria. This the front page of "Le Figaro" this morning. And the same picture on the front page of "Le Brasion (ph)," the other main paper in France, today as well. One of the hands, unfortunately, of one of the people who died in that suicide bombing in Israel.

The other -- the other stories making the headline today, two other stories, one slightly more fun. This, though, a young British woman who is a human shield in Yasser Arafat's compound at present. There is a number of human shields, about a dozen or more, some Italians there. Also, this lady there. They're there assuming that the clock is ticking now on Yasser Arafat. These people have made themselves a home in the compound. And this, one of the British women risking her life, the headline says, for Arafat. Human shield stands firm as Israel bombs Syria. That a fairly big story out here in Europe today. Bear in mind, most of those human shields are indeed Europeans.

The other story on the front pages today is a "Daily Mail" story. The risk free pill for men. Scientists have developed a contraceptive for men, which is said to be 100 percent effective and free of all unpleasant side effects. And apparently two very good points about this, the treatment involves an implant under the skin, meaning men cannot forget to take their pill. That's one point. The other point is that apparently it may increase their libido, which may mean that more men are prepared to take it. That quite a big story in Europe today.

COLLINS: All right. A little racy this morning, don't you think?

ANDERSON: You like that one, huh?

COLLINS: All right. Becky Anderson, thanks so much.
