but there's crowd trouble at the champions league final in london with the latest, from our correspondence with the stadium. the . i'm here until new berlin. thank you very much for joining us. we begin in south africa where the ruling african national congress has lost its hold on power for the 1st time since freeing the nation from apartheid 3 decades ago. with nearly all votes counted, the amc has secured 40 percent losing almost a 3rd of it seats. the like total commission is preparing to announce the final results in the next few hours. the amc must now see coalition partners to form a new government. contenders include the 2nd place democratic alliance, and former president jacob zoom is new and k party which came in 3rd,

he's threatening legal action to delay the election results until allegations of the reading are investigated. the dns, he says it accepts the results and recognizes that the party will have to work hard to rebuild trust. we must not allow on these speak apo and zabel 18 like use corruption. we must be seen this dream that we must be seen as giving all the savings. there is a message that's our support of the us and it's a message we have received a loud and key. our correspondent, dan hawker and johannesburg, told us what happens next. as the independent electoral commission is expected to make a final results announcement on sunday, but the picture is already here. many voters have turned away from the effort to national congress. they've turned towards parties like them can do with caesar. party, which is founded by full mass of african presidents, jacob summa, that party has gone at 14 percent of the vote in the selection,

a significant number for a new party in south africa. it means the party will be quite a big broker in discussions around coalition governments. yeah. they've already said that they are reluctant to talk to the a and see if president silver. i'm a post that remains the leader of the party. but of course the m. k. is not the only option on the table. if the amc wants to form a government, it has a number of possibilities available to it, including joining with the economic freedom fighters and another smaller party. now the effects of said that they are interested and willing to speak to the agency, but they want the non negotiable issues put on the table. some of those issues include issues around land, as well as the formation of a state own bank. they also want whatever deal is reached to be made public. the democratic alliance is also an option. although the agency does differ from that party, significantly, ideologically, if the da and the

a and see where to make reach an agreement, they would be able to form a government without needing any of the smaller projects. and these calculations or what. so the africans are thinking about as we draw that to the end of this election stage, many south africans are hoping and waiting that them go see ation process doesn't take too long. and that these clarity on what the government will look like in the near future. this is a real, has damping hopes for peace and gaza, saying it will pursue the war until it has achieved all of it seems he was present . joe biden has presented a proposal for a permanent ceasefire and the return of hostages held by him. us crowds turned out into leave to urge the government to accept the truce. following months of rallies by hostage families demanding more action to free their loved ones. a mouse has responded positively to the truth proposal. fighting says it would be a mistake to pass up a chance to end the war. aaron,

david miller is an expert on these really posted in conflict and served as advisors to several of us secretaries of state. i asked him what he makes of the proposal laid out by president buying. it's a fine plan. it's faced. drill literally realistic, although there's so much about phase 2 that needs to be negotiated nailed down. problem is not the text of a 4 and a half page agreement. problem is whether or not the current leaderships. a principal decision maker. yeah. guessing wire. on one hand, the government of israel on the other, the work happens already approve this. the question is whether or not, if brought to the full cabinet. so the full cabinet will approve it. how much has no steak in responding to comprehensively uh it quickly. i mean, their calculation is israel is under increasing pressure from us the international

community, hostage families. tomorrow's trading time tunnel and hospitalized 40 really watch, which is the preservation of his leadership. and the can you ation of how much in some form in the politic or post october 7 guys. so right now, i think this proposal is increasingly fraud because you don't have the sense of urgency on either side that matches the present president biden's. let's talk a little bit about that sense of urgency if we could just proposal was a sense, be laid out by biting, but he said it was put forward by israel, however, is really leaders have walk that back and say they will continue to pursue their military ends in gaza. can you make sense of that? well, the war cabinet approved it. it doesn't mean that. yeah, every cabinet minister agree. uh and nothing. yeah. also it has also put out several statements which raise some questions. although i know one mind negotiations parties interpreted to their respective publics as they want. so

i, i think again, you're from us, responds with a yes or a no, or imposes additional condition. there may be no need for the proposal be brought to the full cabinet. if you're from us, wants to play this game practically. they would agree to this us and let the full cabinet, the police really cabinet decide which could prove highly embarrassing to the prime minister, whose kinetic majority rest, with $65.00 seats. and above all, his, his major objective is to main, maintain himself in power. that's part of the problem. i have no brief for how much the vicious terrorist organization that killed indiscriminately raped and murdered and tortured into cost would be very clear. benjamin is danielle, was the worst possible leader at the worst possible time in the worst possible

circumstance. and very, and with respect to both, how mazda is and israel's motors, in this there in lies the problem. right? i'm afraid that's all we have time for right now. that was aaron david miller. thank you very much for your analysis. thank you. take care and here's a brief looked out some other stories making headlines around the world. polls have closed in the last phase of india's elections. nearly a 1000000000 people were eligible to vote over 6 weeks exit polls and just prime minister no render modi's a j. p. let alliance. well, with a big majority. final results are due next week. also what i was president night book a has been sworn in for a 2nd term in office describing himself as a cruel dictator. pokili has waged a popular but brutal crack down on games. begins the move 5 year term with your
