Realistically that's on her.
The mirror needs to hire writers who will have at least a board line understanding of the English language. The hell is going on with that sentence, it's crap.
The article's author wrote "A woman worried her village near Doncaster was under attack when she spotted a number of paragliders flying over her home and thought they were from Hamas".
Then the editor took a quick glance at it between 2 lines of coke, erased "worried", wrote "panicked" with a red sharpie and told the author to make sure next time the headline POPS.
It's all written by AI, some algorithm said that was what headlines look like
