on t.w. . this is you know we news live from berlin the moment of truth britain's theresa may stares down another deadline with a request to the european union for another briggs extension she's in brussels hoping for a delay until summer but e.u. leaders have other ideas through those lines it's friday night. plus israel's benjamin netanyahu is on course for a record fifth term as prime minister following a very tight race is main challenger has just conceded and netanyahu looks ready to

set up a right wing coalition government and get our although this world astronomers review the first ever image of a black hole one of the most mysterious objects in the cosmos a milestone in astrophysics. on land a hawk thank you so much for your company everyone british prime minister theresa may is in brussels for an emergency summit on her country's would draw from the european union which is now due to take place on friday night while she's pleading for a second extension to the brig's a deadline until early summer but french president in monterrey and other e.u. leaders are skeptical of may's ability to deliver an orderly brags that they could reject the request or grant a longer delay than may actually wants thank you mr speaker by asher. all along or

no extension at all to me of lawmakers grill theresa may over the breaks a delay at the weekly prime minister's question may favor postponing bret's it until the thirtieth of june extending it any longer would mean britain having to take part in elections to the european parliament may said that scenario could have been avoided if m.p.'s had only agreed to her deal i'm pressing the case for the deal the extension that i wrote to donald tusk about last week that in fact was introduced by the by parliament last night but can i also say to my own noble friend i think it is important we we could actually be outside the european union by now if we manage to get the deal through. once the june deadline in order to conclude cross party talks with the opposition labor party but many european leaders have a little faith in the talks and want a longer extension instead the german chancellor says she supports a so-called flex tension allowing britain to leave when they can and the u.k. parliament deadlock over

a divorce deal that's come with sinuses and lingle of falling it may well be a longer extension than that requested by the british prime minister which we will make sure that any time the u.k. has ratified the exige agreement britain will be able to exit very quickly in also that go on that for it seemed kind of as leaders arrived in brussels pre-summit meetings to hone strategies got under way still if the bloc won't grant an extension a crèche out exit this friday is still on the cards and yet again the u.k.'s future is in the hands of europe. all right let's take you now to this summer venue or is standing by in brussels where we're theresa may is fishing her plan for a june thirtieth delay to e.u. leaders but she doesn't have a great track record when it comes to presenting her plans. to put to mildly she really does one british cartoonists even drew her today entering the summit room

was in what piece of paper and if you listen to the french president. who just arrived here a little while ago at the summit he said that he would very impatiently listen to to resume a talking about her plans now if that doesn't bode well so the atmosphere in the big summit room here behind us is not going to be all too friendly because many european leaders are just losing patience. prime minister for instance openly talked about his frustrations and some others also feel the have to feeling that it is known time for britain to get its act together and to resume a really doesn't have a plan to present she has finally begun to talk with the opposition but all the other or your european leaders see it they read the british papers they watch british t.v. and they knew that jeremy carvin the opposition leader said things aren't going well so what does she have to take say very uncomfortable moments for treason may

their time very uncomfortable moment so after she arrived at the council building where the summit takes place in brussels that they was asked by reporters who were gathered there at their doorstep what she would do if they insist on a longer delay this is what chance would i am working to ensure that we can leave the european union within the time scale that the government wants to see i want us to have to be able to leave the european union in smooth an orderly way as soon as possible and that's what i'm going to be working for thinking. about where there is there's talk there's some speculation about imposing restrictions on the u.k. as long as it remains a member break his supporters in london are calling the restrictions a humiliation why were to resign me agree to them. because she does. have a choice i mean this is not to treason make comes here and. negotiates with the

other twenty seven no this is to reason make coming here begging for an extension because she couldn't so far get her grex a deal over the line and then she more or less have to take what she is given so it's a very one sided affair and that of course is why many in london are talking about humiliation but that is the sort of basic line of the situation here in brussels and she also she's constantly talks about she will get this over the line she will manage to do this she will push it through pointing the finger at parliament but many european leaders here have simply lost face in that she will be able to do it and deliver it now finally in conclusion when are we likely to get an answer to that all important question how long will the u.k. remain a member of the european union. do i have a crystal ball about the extension very likely is going to be something like around the end of the year because what european heads of state and government do not want

is a series of kill if eggs the cliff edge for exit summits i mean like every street three weeks not even every three months they want this issue off the table in one room the french president was really striking he said we have other problems to deal with and he's also the one who wants to put obligations and duties on to the british side as long as there are members of the european union because he fears that the successor to to reason may who might be harder to tear would be obstructive would sort of try to interfere in european business would try to sort of bring down votes or do other stuff that really impedes the european union and nobody here wants that so yes there will probably be some ties to the extension and all this is just a very bad evening for the british prime minister. robert ayson reporting from brussels thank you. and we turn our attention now to

sudan where police in that country say eleven people were killed in protests in her tomb on tuesday including six members of the security forces were just hours have been camped out at army headquarters in the capital since saturday demanding the resignation of president omar al bashir and several occasions soldiers have stepped in to protect them the sit in comes after months of nationwide demonstrations against the shia who has ruled the country with an iron fist for almost three decades with all of the people you know. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has secured a victory and his country's parliamentary elections this after his main challenger centers benny gantz conceded defeat on the spot a neck and neck finish at the polls netanyahu is in position to form a majority coalition with the support from a number of right wing parties leaders for guidance is blue and white party say as the opposition they will make life difficult for netanya. it won't

be a sweeping victory but it will nonetheless be historic israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu appears to have edged out a win for a record fifth term the right wing bloc is expected to hand his likud party a solid majority the divisive election drew mixed reactions from israelis. i got what i wanted. just because in my opinion there's no better alternative. you can't just come out of nowhere and become a prime minister and the b.b.c. has all the experience and big achievement that shows how strong b.b. is now he can do whatever he wants to or to we exit polls have shown a deadlock with the center left blue and white alliance led by benny gantz he also declared victory but the optimism proved premature one exchange in the country has

been you know it's been going on for a while the photos may be time for change i'm devastated absolutely devastated. we're surrounded by right wing radical people who want to any more spiritual reads in this part we're never going to have peace in the countdown to the election netanyahu valid for the first time to annex parts of the occupied west bank for some this would all but and any hope for a two state solution with the palestinians. i think we have just witnessed the clear cut vote by the israelis to maintain the status quo as far as we. miss was a vote to maintain the status quo to maintain apartheid. the election was also overshadowed by netanyahu has legal troubles during the campaign the attorney general recommended indicting him on bribery and breach of trust charges he denies

any wrongdoing and would not be legally required to resign if formally charged netanyahu appears to have beaten his most serious challenger thus far. the official results of the vote are expected later in the week. now return exciting discovery astronomers have revealed what they're calling a ground breaking development researchers using a global network of telescopes have photographed the end of a black hole for the very first time of our calls are celestial objects with such strong gravitational fields that even light gets pulled into that while scientists hope the new images will explain how matter acts in such extreme conditions which could verify or contradict for example what einstein's theory of relativity. so a very big deal indeed with me here now to talk more about this is lay out there from

science desk layer now we finally know what a black hole a look slike i thought scientists already had like some simulations there but this is a confirmation why are they this particular image why is it so important well it is important it's quite huge i mean it was widely accepted that like holes exist no one had seen them before so this is the first real image of a black hole and as you said it's also kind of a confirmation that they exist for their systems. and it's really exciting but not to be exact it's not the image of the black hole itself because it's by definition invisible we can't see it it's just stark so what we see here is actually. this tebow of the black hole against the back drop off of the gases and dust that rolling around it all right so not exactly a snap shot tell me how it works because what you said is that they had to piece it

together explain how it works exactly yes quite tricky because black hole this like holes specially is massive it's six point five billion times the mass of the sun but it's small in size so what you need to care. true this would be a telescope dish as big as the size of earth but of course that's not possible so what the scientists did they put together a telescopes around the globe and they gathered many many data just as you know just as an image if the data the data five nights only if they would be music started and be three it would take you eight thousand years to play a thousand years is a very long time i don't think we're going to be around for that given that this is undeniably phenomenal fantastic great scientific discovery but what are some of the practical uses sorry. well the practical uses it's difficult to tell so far but it's still really groundbreaking and important for understanding i mean in the

end we learn more about the universe we live in and we are part of so the u.s. so far and the values of believe that to learn more about our world thank you so much les are ready for bringing us that very very exciting discovery thank you. and we are going to leave you now with scenes from the storied career of n.b.a. great dear can of its skin who is about to retire from basketball at the end of the season i'll see you at the top of the hour. as you say. it's.
