she talks us through the political so, four days until the uk pressure on the prime minister. potentially leaves the eu without a deal. that means all ties are cut with no agreements in place. one of the big questions is what would happen to the irish border in that situation? the eu's chief brexit negotiatior we have to keep updating this brexit was in dublin today. if the uk were to leave the eu countdown for this story. but at the moment... four days to go until the latest brexit deadline. without a deal, let me be clear, and there are three possible outcomes for this week — the eu grants the uk an extension we would not discuss anything to the brexit date, with the uk until there by far the most likely. is an agreement for ireland secondly, the uk leaves and northern ireland on friday with a no—deal brexit — as well as for citizens‘ rights and a financial settlement. or the uk parliament intervenes throughout all of this, the eu 27 will remain fully united and stops the brexit process. as it has been since day one. first — the most likely — the potential extension. there's an eu summit on wednesday where the decision on an extension will be taken. and theresa may will be in berlin and paris tomorrow to make the case. for talks with angela merkel and

mr barnier‘s visit follows emmanuel macron. angela merkel‘s last week, so the eu is focused on this. also today the uk began and the irish border has long the process of taking part been a sticking point in european elections. this is alex forsyth showing the in brexit negotiations. government's intention. currently, it's completely open — goods and people pass across it with no checks. that's easy because the republic of ireland and the uk this is from a cabinet office are both in the eu. statement but it goes on... now all sides say they want "as a responsible government we have taken the nexessary steps required to avoid a hard border. by law should we have to participate". let's get more on this from alex. there's been an e—mail sent round, to all conservatives, today saying, "if you want to be a candidate, let us know, because we might have to take pa rt". as that statement showed, the government has repeatedly said the practicalities are hard it doesn't want to be because of the good friday agreement in the position where it has to take part. but the way these things work that was signed by the british is that if the uk hasn't managed and irish governments in 1998, which brought an end to years to get a deal agreed and to have of conflict known as the troubles. left the eu by may the 22nd, now here's the current irish prime minister leo varadkar‘s latest then it will have to take part in these elections. comments on the situation. it's a completely bizarre situation. i sincerely hope that it will be and, of course, getting a deal possible to build a sufficient agreed depends on chats that consensus in westminster to enable are going on with the labour party, ratification of the withdrawal finding some sort of compromise that agreement and an orderly brexit thereafter. from ireland's perspective, parliament can get round. we are open to extending

and all the while, theresa may the deadline to allow time for these having to go to brussels saying, discussions to run their course "oh, help me out, i needed a little and come to a conclusion. above all, we want to withdrawal agreement to be ratified bit longer for this, please". so that negotiations can begin on the future relationship, meanwhile, the conservatives on building a new economic and the opposition labour party and security partnership are still searching for a brexit between the uk and the compromise that european union that's parliament would support. as close as can be achieved. stephen swinford from the telegraph a no—deal exit would be updates us on this... damaging for everyone, for the united kingdom, for ireland and for the european union. there are ongoing discussions among this reality check article goes the customs union and a confirmatory into some more detail on what no vote, second referendum. deal would mean for the border. those are two huge issues but no—one is quite sure. still being discussed. lots to resolve. here's labour's leaderjeremy corbyn. this is from the irish times today — well, the meetings are very long. and a great deal of detail is gone "no clarity on food and animal imports from north into by both parties. in no—deal rules." we have people that have here's more from been on this case for several years, so they're very well emma vardy in dublin. interestingly in that press accustomed to it all. conference, perhaps unsurprisingly we also heard some very warm words we've gone into it because about the hopes that the discussions the government, at last, succeeded to requests that i first in london between the conservatives

made last september. and labour could lead to a positive we are prepared to talk and put forward our views. outcome to an agreement of some but talks have to mean kind, very warm words from michel barnier, a movement and, so far, leo varadkar, the possibility there's been no change of agreement around a customs union, in those red lines. something that's still very also today, uk foreign secretary contentious in those discussions jeremy hunt has been in luxembourg in london, but, of course, to meet eu foreign ministers. why does ireland want to see he had a quite different take a resolution and a potential customs union agreement? on those talks with labour. you can't go into any of those discussions with big red lines, well, because it would because otherwise, there's no point to help to solve some of those irish having them, but we are very clear border issues and ireland could be about the type of brexit we want. extremely hit very hard if there was a no—deal brexit. that's in our manifesto and we've made that clear. so, what i think i'll be saying to my colleagues in the european union today is that you can see from this that theresa may is leaving no stone unturned. there could be farmers for example for whom perhaps it has become unviable overnight so it is no secret why it is in ireland's interest for this to be resolved and a customs union would go some way, not all the way, to helping to do that so a lot of folks being pinned on those here's the bbc‘s europe editor, discussions in westminster katya adler, in brussels, as michel barnier comes for that on whether the eu will grant crucial meeting today. the uk an extension. keeping the irish border open michel barnier, the eu's chief negotiator says was the purpose of the controversial the eu remains united. but they aren't, actually, united, at the moment about whether to grant an extension, backstop in theresa may's withdrawal agreement.

how long for, and under it effectively keeps the uk which conditions, because the prime minister may say she wants a short in the eu's customs union if no extension until the 30th ofjune. but many eu leaders disagree, trade deal is in place, because they cannot see the uk really getting everything together and ratifying a brexit thus avoiding a hard border. deal by that date. but some brexiteers hate that idea because it could mean the uk can't if the conservatives and labour do cut its own trade deals indefinitely. manage to reach an agreement that could get a brexit deal through parliament, there are other issues. for that reason, they've sunk theresa may's withdrawal agreement this is from the bbc‘s laura three times in parliament. and so the search goes on for the solution to the riddle kuenssberg. the eu is worried about of theresa may's red lines — she says she wants no hard border, this too. we're told the prime minister's team but also wants out of the single is looking at a lock which would prevent future leaders changing course. it might not be that simple. market and out of the customs union. here's more from alex forsyth this article from six months ago summed it — in westminster again. "britain's brexit red lines are incompatible." there is a convention that one and if they aren't, no proposal has been able to convince the eu prime minister won't bind the hands of another, and parliament that this square that a government can't stop another can be circled. different government doing here's emma again. something else entirely. and that is the concern for labour. because the conversations at the moment in those talks

are focused a lot on what the uk's future relationship with the eu might look like. that is still subject to negotiation. there has been speculation, of and that does not form course, that perhaps ireland might part, at this stage, be under pressure from other eu of the legally binding text. countries, because of its firm attachment to the backstop. can't itjust give an inch so, labour's concern is, "look, on that and may be theresa may, if you promise us that the deal will get over the line we're going to keep close economic and everyone would be happy. ties, even if you anger but i would say that it's still really of your own party and say you'll speculation and there hasn't been any concrete pursue a customs union, evidence that there how do we trust that when you leave, your next leader comes in and says is something completely different?" and it's how you pin that down that's proving really difficult. any real pressure on ireland how theresa may can get labour to budge in the background. to trust her on that. but, yes, we are inching closer and closer to but, conversely, how the government can make sure that if labour do say that moment of reckoning, which, at the moment, friday is the uk they'll back a brexit deal that leaving without a deal. they'll really follow through. so, the questions get so, this is a strange exercise, harder and harder as when you've got two rival parties to the irish border will be kept open having these conversations, and yet the integrity both saying they want compromise, of the but having to involve single market be preserved. an awful lot of trust, which is unnatural between opposition parties in that process. that is, i think, part of the sticking point here. and help me to understand theresa may's most optimistic but don't mistake outline of what would happen here. the difficulty of the questions for being she goes to brussels, she gets an extension, she comes back, she gets a deal pressure on ireland. with labour, then what? because the eu certainly doesn't want to be seen to be that is the hope, i think. selling ireland out just

it is still her intention to try to help things for the uk. the unity of the eu comes above that in the eyes of and get an extension. michel barnier and the other leaders she has requested for an extension and that's been made quite clear all up tojune the 30th. along this process and very it may be that eu leaders say something completely different. much so again today. but that is her hope. and then she intends to come back, you'll know there is no danger of us see if she can resolve something with labour, are short—changing you on brexit coverage. we will be turning to it put a deal to parliament, and get approval for it, again and again, covering it from all sides. the united states has labelled so we can leave for maybe 22nd, an element of iran's military so we can leave before may 22nd, as a terrorist organisation. here's us secretary so we don't have to take part in those european elections. of state mike pompeo. we know that she's already suggested she would step aside, once an exit deal was agreed. i am announcing out intent so then we may be in a position to designate the islamic where the conservatives have revolutionary guard corps, to have a leadership contest including its goods force, and a new leader, to negotiate future relations. as a foreign terrorist organisation but that is for the future. according to section 219 the focus from the government is still trying to get of the immigration a brexit deal over the line. and nationality act. this designation will take effect but, you know, the proposition that one week from today. theresa may's put forward has this is the first time already been rejected three times. that the united states has designated a part of another she is under a lot of pressure government as an fto. from her own mps to not work too we are doing it because the iranian closely with labour. regime's use of terrorism as a tool some of them are furious about that. of statecraft makes it fundamentally so it's still farfrom certain different whether or not she can negotiate from any other government. anything which can win pa rliament‘s support. one question a lot of you have

raised is that if there is a known deal brexit, what happens to the there's this profile on the website border between northern ireland and of exactly what the irgc is. the republic of ireland. we will it was set up a0 years ago to defend look at that issue in about 20 the country's islamic system and now has more than 150,000 active personnel, minutes on outside source. other boasts its own ground forces, stories, now. a big story about navy and air force, and oversees iran's strategic weapons. unsurprisingly iran isn't social media in the uk. happy with the guards social media companies have been being labelled terrorists. told by the uk government that "the era of self regulation is over." you can read the whole of the new white paper that has been published. in this new white paper, they've retaliated by declaring us it proposes an independent watchdog forces in the middle east and says companies and their senior as a terrorist organisation. managers could be fined and held let's speak to barbara plett usher in washington. liable for "harmful content". help us understand the timing of this. why has america decided to if you are thinking what does make this shift? we didn't get a harmful content mean, there's an extensive list of definitions. specific answer from officials. make this shift? we didn't get a specific answerfrom officials. they just said it was the next logical things like fake news, hate speech, extremism or content that could exacerbate step in the pressure campaign against iran. there has been mental health problems. intensity in the white house and the administration has been looking at this is a shift, because, how it can increase pressure on iran at the moment, the person who posts and how it can reduce iran's growing this content is most at risk of prosecution or punishment. influence in the region in places

here's the uk's home secretary. like iraq and syria and yemen so too many social media firms those who are strong advocates of still seem to think that they can get away with providing the service the campaign like mike pompeo were without providing the protection for users. pushing for this. there was some pushback from the pentagon and the cia who were uneasy about this step, that anyone who challenges them must be some kind of luddite, who just doesn't understand the modern world. they felt that iran and other adversaries would then branded the that a little progress here and there is acceptable. while countless people, terrorist label to us forces which their lives are being destroyed. enough. has happened, there were security concerns about that. one thing i should say is that critics of this the uk is not the only country move believe the timing is related looking at these issues. to the israeli election which is last week, australia passed the sharing of happening tomorrow and that this is abhorrent violent material act — it introduces fines and jail meant to give the prime minister sentences for companies and tech executives. benjamin netanyahu a boost and he this follows the live thanked trump for the step but there streaming of the mosque has been no connection made in shootings in new zealand. washington. i get by this is attractive in terms of symbolism but at the beginning of last year, what does it change for the level —— germany brought in a law where companies with more than 2 million users had 2a hours to remove anything illegal. revolutionary guard in practical with fines of up to a 50 million terms? officials talked about and euros fine for companies

which fail to comply. isolated and shamed them so it was the eu is considering clamping down — with companies facing punishment rhetorical but they are hoping the if videos connected to terror attacks are not taken economic impact of this designation down within an hour. will weaken the revolutionary guard corps because the group does control large swathes of the economy and now but this issue is complex. that it has been designated a some content may be clearly illegal, terrorist, that means anyone who but much more will be in areas does business with it or it's that are hard to assess. companies not only faces sanctions zoe kleinman has more. but criminal prosecutions and being cut off from any sort of international system and so they are hoping that that will take effect. this is going to create complications especially for there is ilegal content in the uk, europeans who have been trying to things like hate crime is illegal. keep those economic ties open and there is illegal content in the uk, things like hate crime is illegal. keep those economic ties open and but there's also this sort keep doing commercial business and of umbrella term, "harmful content", trade with iran so they would have which includes things like trolling, to look at that more carefully and cyber bullying, you know, unpleasant things, but not necessarily there is wider concern this will against the law in themselves. and that's also a bit increase tensions in the region, of a grey area. especially as both iran and the us how do you navigate that? have labelled each other‘s units in because one thing that somebody doesn't like is another person's right to freedom of speech. and we're already seeing in other the region as countries that there's much terrorist groups. discussion about whether freedom of speech is being censored. the tech firms, of course, we bring you the bestjournalism if they're facing fines and legal proceedings, from all over the world every day.

they're going to be cautious, they're going to delete first and think about it afterwards. we have heard from dublin, tel aviv that's going to upset a lot people who feel it's their right and next we are going to madagascar. to give their views on the internet. stay with us on outside source. still to come: on the eve it's found that at least six of israel's general election, candidates in the lead up to last prime minister netanyahu is facing year's presidential elections some fierce political opposition. there were offered we'll hear from the bbc‘s lyse doucet in tel aviv. money by russians. she looks ahead to the vote on tuesday and the chances of benjamin netanyahu tuesday and the chances of benjamin neta nyahu holding tuesday and the chances of benjamin netanyahu holding onto power. so to spell it out — russian political strategists with close ties to the kremlin in moscow were in move madagascar, the case of molly russell, allegedly to help control the 14—year—old who took her own the tightly fought race. this has raised questions life after viewing self—harm images on whether democracy in madagascar on instagram, focused attention has been compromised. on the kind of material available on social media sites. molly's father, ian, says instagram was partly to blame for his daughter's death. our correspondent angus crawford, madagascar, among the poorest who was the first to report on this story, has been speaking to him, countries in africa, about the proposed new safeguards. recently staged one of the most i think the white paper is a very important step to making closely contested elections. the internet a safer place. the era of self—regulation, quite patently, hasn't worked, this wealthy businessman, andry rajoelina, emerged because there's horrible content as the winner but clear signs that's been available online, of russian meddling that's now well known about. in the polls threaten to undermine democracy here.

and so, it's a necessary we've been investigating claims step in order to make the internet a better place, of russian interference in the elections in madagascar. a safer place, particularly for young and vulnerable people. but it is only a step. at least six presidential candidates were offered money by russian teams it's really important not to erode free speech, in what was a systematic to allow freedom of expression. and coordinated operation by dozens one of the reasons the internet of russians who have been is a marvellous place is you can here over nearly a year. find whatever you want on it, and when that is a positive among those the team targeted, this man, the influential thing, it's brilliant. presidential hopeful, pastor malihol. and away from the campaign trail, a clear view of who the russian visitors were. andrey kramar, who has strong this is outside source live political connections. from the bbc newsroom. roman posniakov, a businessman and vladimir boyariskev who has theresa may has four days a history in the diamond trade. to stop the uk from leaving the eu without a deal. but there were apparently the next brexit deadline. strings attached. she's about to embark on a trip to berlin and paris as cross—party talks continue between labour and the conservatives. trying to make the case for a further brexit extension. a third day of protests

calling for the resignation of the sudanese presisident outside the army's headquarters in khartoum. sudan's interior minister says six people died in the city over the weekend and more than 2,000 people were arrested. that's from bbc afrique. a national park in florida has captured a record 5.2—metre python. the snake weighed 63.5 kilos and was pregnant with 73 eggs. pythons pose a major threat to native wildlife in the state. that's among the most read the visitors were also spotted articles on our website. as you might imagine. at mark demonstrations outside the french embassy. fighting is raging around iknow him. what's his name? libya's capital, tripoli. maxim. back on the campaign trail and the campaign managerfor another forces loyal to this man, rogue presidential candidate also suggests general general khalifa haftar, russia has had a hand in the polls, have been attacking the suburbs identifying this well—known of the city for days. russian pr man as having the un says close to 3,000 people offered financial assistance. have fled and many more are trapped. we also know an air strike closed the city's only it's like they decided what we functioning airport. you can see that marked on the should do and we just had to do it. coast. not many pictures but to sum like, to execute.

from the airport in the aftermath. that's right but some pictures. it's like i had the feeling there were no reports of casualties. that we were more like suppliers, passengers were seen evacuating the terminal shortly rather than candidate campaign team. after as the airport announced it was closing. reports indicate the attack was carried out by forces loyal to general haftar but the bbc hasn't maxim shugaley is a veteran political spin doctor, been able to confirm that. back home in russia. we also have some other pictures that came into the newsroom over the weekend — this is general haftar‘s he did not respond to bbc self—proclaimed requests for comment. libyan national army. it is not known who is behind and these are forces from the un—backed government what appears to be a well of national accord. orchestrated campaign in a country where election funding laws are weak. however, according to unconfirmed media reports, this man, he has significant territory in yevgeny prigozhin, is financing teams of russian technical libya. his face as benghazi and has specialists in several territory in the east. he has had a african countries. series of victories in the desert in he is close to president putin and has been indicted in the us the south and is now focused on for alleged criminal interference tripoli. in the 2016 presidential election, charges which he denies. the un has called for a humanitarian ceasefire. no sign of that. the political envoy has called for along with influencing political solutions.

elections here. no sign of them. and this is the european union. it is in the interest andry rajoelina, who was eventually of all europeans to avoid that this current military sworn in, as president. escalation develops even further and escalates to the level he denies taking any money from the russians. of a civil war. the libyan health ministry says at least 25 civilians and government fighters have been killed. haftar says 19 of his men have died. that's the past few days — but this story reached back to 2011 when rebels backed by the west but with further elections overthrew colonel gaddafi. across africa later this year, haftar was a military will the hidden hand chief under gaddafi. of russia again be revealed? here's alan johnston gaelle borgia, bbc news, madagascar. to pick up the story. felicity huffman and 12 other wealthy parents plead guilty in the us general haftar was close college admissions scam, to colonel gaddafi, part of the coup that brought we'll be live in new york with nada colonel gaddafi to power. tawfik. but they fell out badly. general haftar was sent to wage part of libya's war in neighbouring chad. he got captured and gaddafi disowned him there injail.

he was actually rescued, pretty much, by the americans, who took him and his forces away a new "ultra low emission zone" to reduce air pollution has come into force in central and he spent something london. under the scheme, drivers of older, more polluting like 20 years in the us, cars and vans will have to pay a daily fee of £12.50 on top where he was widely believed to have worked with the cia of the existing congestion charge. victoria gill reports. on operations against gaddafi. these images, films with a heat sensitive camera showed the but following the fall of colonel gaddafi, general haftar pollution from vehicles being pumped into our streets. came back to benghazi and launched it's invisible, but on busy a campaign to rid it city streets like this, ofjihadi forces. we all breathing it and long term exposure to air pollution from traffic can damage our lungs, our hearts, and it reduces our life and had his own army expectancy. around him, of course. and that took him something that's why london is embarking on a bold venture. like three years of fighting the world's first ultra low emission zone. from today drivers of the most in benghazi, when he polluting vehicles will have secured the city, much to pay to enter the city centre. destruction and many dead. but then he moved on in the course the ultra low emission zone is set of the last few months, to be expanded to cover the entire area between the north down into the south of libya, capturing a lot of territory fairly easily and now we see him and south circular roads in 2021. at the gates of tripoli, trying to capture the capital. cities across england does he have international allies? are considering similar schemes with birmingham and leeds saying they will introduce clean air zones next year. he certainly does. the idea is to discourage people

he's had backing from neighbouring to drive into central london if they've got polluting vehicles, egypt, president sissi would find it to encourage them to walk, cycle, or use public transport. easy to relate to a general if they have to drive into central london, to use a cleaner form a vehicle, like haftar, a military figure. electric, hybrid, or hydrogen powered. he has had important support from the united arab emirates. and the french have had a degree of contact with haftar, there have been french military but if you are going to drive personnel of a high calibre, in with a more polluting vehicle you'd have to pay for that. so, what is a more polluting vehicle? well, it's based on a occasionally, in among general haftar‘s forces. standard emissions test. and given he's had a substantial petrol vehicles registered before amount of territory for some time, 2005 are likely to be subject to this new charge. now, why is he making this push on the capital at this point? but most diesel vehicles registered that's a little bit uncertain. before 2016 will be liable. perhaps it's linked to the fact and what will it cost? well, if you include that the un was preparing a conference that is due the congestion charge, it could cost £2a per day to drive to start on sunday. a car or van into central london. this is a national experiment, it's supposed to pave the way an attempt to clean up towards eventual elections in libya. the air that we breathe. and perhaps general haftar and it begins on the busy, polluted streets was worried that he might be right of central london. victoria gill, bbc news. was worried that he might be rather sidelined in that process. perhaps he made this move because he wanted

to stake out territory, give himself more leverage as libya moved in that direction. but he's made no secret of the fact that he wants to capture tripoli. this is outside source live he, ithink, regards himself as a potential saviour of libya. from the bbc newsroom. that the country needs to be our lead story is... conquered by him, united by him. and he would impose theresa may has just four what he would regard as a degree days to stop the uk from leaving the eu without a deal. of unity and stability on the country, of course. his opponents would see him the brexit date is currently as a potential military, scheduled for this friday. arab, strongman, dictator and they would pretty much worry about that. a third day of protests calling for the resignation of the sudanese presisident outside the army's headquarters in khartoum. and you see them bitterly opposing him, as we speak. sudan's interior minister says six as i say, at the gates of tripoli. people died in the city over the weekend and more than 2,000 people were arrested. bbc afrique. nissan shareholders have voted their former chairman, carlos ghosn, the actress felicity huffman and 13 should be taken off other people have agreed to plead the board of directors. however, in an exclusive guilty to participating interview with the bbc, in what prosecutors call the largest college admissions scam mr ghosn‘s lawyer has told our andrew walker that her client was innocent. uncovered in us history. ghosn was re—arrested in tokyo last week, while out on bail pending trial

the biggest majority in 30 years. translation: we need to make sure that everyone goes to the polling for narendra modi, it had been stations, because we are a long journey to the top spot. going to serve all voters from the right and from the left, born in a small town in the western state of gujarat, as a child, he helped his father sell tea all israeli citizens. at this railway station. mr modi begins to the hindu there are 120 seats up for grabs in the israeli parliament. nationalist bjp party. no single party in israel has ever won a majority, so coalition governments are inevitable. polls suggest benjamin a much adored leader, netanyahu's likud party — here in red — along with the blue he enjoys an almost cult following. and white alliance, will account but he's also a divisive politician. for around half of those seats. the remaining seats will be taken by some of the 39 other parties taking part. he was the chief minister of gujarat when religious riots so the biggest party has to set broke out in the state, about building a majority. accused of not doing enough to protect muslims. our chief international but his supporters credited him correspondent, lyse doucet, is in tel aviv. for putting india on the global map. and for the country growing at a rapid pace. while the numbers are disputed, she is leading the coverage of this they're a big part of his campaign pitch. modi takes on rahul gandhi — election. he's the latest in the gandhi—nehru this has been described dynasty to lead the congress party. as his toughest election yet. but i've covered every election devina gupta has more on him.

in which benjamin netanyahu has won ever since the 19905 politics is in the blood and they are always described as difficult to call, unpredictable. of a8—year—old rahul gandhi who joined the party in 200a. three generations of his family but even by those standard, this one have served the country is pretty tough because he has got as prime minister, including his a formidable challenger, great—grandfather, benny gantz, a former army chief who has no political experience. jawaharlal nehru, who was india's but israelis like their soldiers and he was the man who fought wars first prime minister. for israel and now he's fighting and his grandmother, indira gandhi, who was india's only these election battles. female prime minister. the thing is about israeli politics, initially a reluctant politician, one israeli party has never rahul is now trying to establish himself as a worthy opponent. governed on its own in the 120—seat knesset. this unexpected gesture it has always been a matter of a coalition. was a defining moment for his image, the big question now is first, who will win? will it be benny gantz or will it be when he hugged the prime minister inside the parliament. benjamin netanyahu with the largest it became a national talking point, number of seats with their blue pitching rahul gandhi and white alliance? as a friendly leader. and then who stands the better chance of cobbling the better a quick reminder about brexit, talks chance of cobbling together all those small parties, which are running in order between conservatives and labour to form a governing coalition? have continued to try to find some so it's very much a two—pa rt process.
