from the european union is pushed back to october thirty first e.u. leaders gathered at an emergency summit in brussels and they decided to grant british prime minister theresa may a six month extension but it was a night of a tough talks france's president a man on mccall said he is running out of patience and he's not alone so a lifeline for breaks it but will it be enough i'm sumi so misconduct in berlin this is the day. tonight still reveal goals of the side that still grants the right to taking them a flexible extension of the cool fifty period of the. first of october this means. for the u.k. by continue to believe we need to these the e.u. with a deal as soon as possible and finally easy you have agreed that the extension.

when the withdrawal agreement has been rushed final pushes mikey requests of my fellow the people it's key to preserve the coherence of europe and allow it to move forward to be a change on britain's preparation for the european elections guarantees the functioning of the institutions of the european union. europe's try ability and unity is still at stake things are foremost interest is an orderly withdrawal of britain from the e.u. . maintaining the unity of the twenty seven. should but i do not want breaks or to hold this up in my point. also coming up benjamin netanyahu has declared victory a fifth term one on a promise of stability security and endless occupation of the west bank the us president says that is a recipe for peace. not everyone said and i never made it a problem. but everybody said you didn't have peace in the middle east with israel

and the palestinians i think we have it here we have now a better word bibi everyone. we begin the day with the e.u. burning the midnight brags it or oil and emergency summit in brussels e.u. leaders came together once again to deal with britain's in a. early to do what it says it wants to do leave the european union now two deadlines for brags that have already come and gone the e.u. again granted the u.k. one more one last extension if british prime minister theresa may had been sent back to london empty handed she and her country would have crashed out of the european union on friday evening at eleven pm london time but europe offered him a much more time than she'd even asked for so does this plan put an end to the chaos or just prolong the ticking brags that bomb. during this time. the

call for function would be entirely in the u.k. so and. you can still go out there fide there is the rogue reman. in each case the extension will be terminated. it can also reconsider the whole regs its strategy. and that might lead to changes in the political decoration but not in that it was there all agreement until the end of this period they also have the possibility to revoke the key fifty and go through briggs it all together. this extension this as flexible as expected. and a little bit shorter than they expected but that still enough to find the best possible solution please. do not waste this time. actions we've all to do would be to use us everyone knows that so we have to do everything to avoid that's what all of them are sort of trying to do but you know we have been quite

successful. let's bring in our correspondents covering this story for us we have fiber of a's all following on the latest in brussels for us and our break that analyst alex force waiting with us in studio thank you both for joining us barbara let's start with you so we heard there donald tusk and john called you are saying they were satisfied with this agreement but with the admonition please do not waste this time this next six months theresa may have said it's her intention to leave before that date if possible even before he will lections next month what do you make of all these comments. of course some of those said please get on with it because he and the of the e.u. leaders have been watching the agony over breakfast for months on end now we need to remember in november there was draw agreement was agreed by the two sides as a matter of principle the entries made took it back to london and since then there was just after chaos and even more chaos so the lead from donald tusk is quite

understandable he hopes that britain can somehow return to its good senses and find a compromise as the european union has done here tonight and figured out how and how much of an extension to give so that is that is the main point that you have to take away from donald to scan of course also junco junco the commission president pleading again and saying we do not want a hard break it's bad for everybody it is also bad for britain so don't do this box of course everything remains possible that is something that the two leaders also emphasized we don't know yet how this is going to end barbara let's talk more about the compromise that was agreed upon there in brussels this is a six month extension up until october thirty first but there's a review in june tell us what that is about. the review in june is sort of being

played down earlier and everybody said that that's a consideration for the. french president. because he wanted to play hardball he wanted really to sort of turn the screws and britain and sort of take some voting rights or on the rights away from them as a continuing evil member states and the other sort of said listen legally that is not really possible and politically it wouldn't serve any good purpose that is not being done just to they have to promise that they are going to cooperate continue to all cooperate in this spirit of sincere positive cooperation and to not be obstructive and to resume a did that of course but the review just means at the june summit which is a regular summit meeting they will all get together and say now let's look at direct said how are things going on how is britain behaving itself and what are the ideas of the summer will they make it over on day then we never know the they might

even have left by that time all right well that's the perspective alex let's come to you to talk about theresa may here because she also spoke after this extension was reached in brussels we do have a clip of her comments let's listen to those. good morning everybody i've just met with donald trump the president of the european council where i agreed an extension to the brics process to the end of october at the latest i continue to believe we need to leave the e.u. with a deal as soon as possible and for actually in you have agreed that the extension can be terminated when the withdrawal agreement has been rushed find which is my key request of my fellow leaders for example this means that if we're able to pass a deal in the first three weeks of may we will not have to take part in european elections and will officially leads the e.u. on sunday the first of june. during the course of the extension the european council is clear that the u.k. will continue to hold full membership rights as well as its obligations as i said

in the room tonight there is only a single tear in your membership with no conditionality attached beyond existing treaty obligations let me conclude by saying this i know that the risk huge frustration for many people that i had to request this extension the u.k. should has left the e.u. by now and i sincerely regret the fact that i have not yet been able to persuade parliament to approve a deal which would allow the u.k. to leave in a smooth and orderly way but the choices we now face are stark and the timetable is clear so we must now press on that pace with our efforts to reach a consensus on a deal that is in the national interest tomorrow i will be making a statement to the house of commons further talks will also take place between the government and the opposition to seek a way forward. i don't pretend the next few weeks will be easy all there is a simple way to break the deadlock in parliament but we have a duty as politicians to find

a way to fulfill the democratic decision of the referendum deliver breck's it and move our country forward nothing more pressing for more vital. all right so alex we heard to theresa may summing up the agreement there in saying thanks for that six month extension i'm going to try to get this done in the next few weeks if not overly optimistic i mean if she just has not changed her message has she she just sticks to the same lines over and over again she is yet again telling us and telling everybody in the u.k. and across the e.u. that she is still hoping to get her deal through parliament which by the way has been defeated three times so far and get out before having to take part in those european parliamentary elections on may twenty second i mean i'm i have to say i think that's a bit of a dream on her part i think that is unrealistic she's sticking to her line she is she there again was pretty much blaming him pays for the deadlock parliament for

not agreeing to do it because she couldn't get enough support through but saying that she is still tomorrow going to go back to the commons house of commons make a statement and that those talks with the labor party will continue those cross party talks which have upset so many politicians in her own party that she's under a lot of pressure she's under a lot of pressure they don't want to see her talking with jeremy corbyn who they believe is a marxist and their enemy and yet she feels that that is all that she can do because she needs the support to get this deal agreed but the last year through parliament so she's hoping that she can get labor support to do just that meanwhile those bricks it is on the right of her party who want the u.k. to have left two weeks ago yet alone on friday so the talk of a six month delay is just horrific for them they are they want her out

and they are will be pushing the pressure on and doing everything they can to get out and to get the person they want in to make. sure the brics it happens the odds are really stacked against a recent may so that it's going to be very difficult to achieve in the next few weeks somebody who was very much in favor of a longer extension here was the german chancellor merkel she's also been speaking after the extension was granted let's listen to her comments him from germany and that he has been. strongly saying. that because you know me to be here. during the discussion when for instance which has extended so is the period of three we have been able to reach agreement amongst the twenty seven member states and this has been true for tonight to see how he intends to maintain. all right well of barbara listening to that i mean there must

be a sense of relief there in brussels that there at least is no longer a cliff edge in two weeks time there is a little bit of time to sort out what will happen with breaks it. yeah of course there is relief because everybody really wants to get rid of this topic i mean nobody wants to talk about this anymore nobody even wants to mention the b. word anymore that is really here in the meantime in brussels they have other problems in europe in elections are coming up they're going to be a big change in personnel and brussels every single be made new in the summer a new start mark wrong different president has big plans for a european renascence as he calls it so there is so many things to do and for x. it is just a distraction somebody that everybody wants to go away so they can put this to the side now they don't really have to worry about it anymore for the next six months

and britain can do as it likes they can sort of tear themselves apart they can beat each other over the head was big six they can do what they please really but don't bother anymore that was one of the messages that was being sent to london from the summit here in brussels all right they can put it aside but it will still alex be simmering on the back burner what do you see happening in the next weeks months possibly six months until october thirty first everything is on the table that's without a doubt as i said before there is a big push from those u.s. skeptics into reason may's own party who want out and they want a new leader in place how quickly they can do that when they're not officially able to call a no confidence vote in the prime minister for another six months seven months it's going to be difficult but the pressure is on her she has always said that she didn't want a deadline to go past june the thirtieth if it goes posture in the thirtieth if it

does create up. to the thirty first of october and we're back where we are today what happens we surely have to go she can't i can't see having a last past june the thirtieth and she knows that there are people waiting in the wings for her to go as for brix it everything is on the table she is trying to bring had deal she's trying to persuade more parliamentarians to supports it and we will see whether it becomes a soft of bricks it off to roll just very briefly alex do you think the british people are ready for six more months of this i think the british people were fed up with this a year a year and a half ago i mean that the country is still very divided over the issue of brics it people don't like to talk about it but unfortunates or people can talk about at the moment so are they ready for another six months no but they're just going to have to be our correspondent alex forrest waiting with us here in studio and barbara visa law following the latest for us from brussels thank you both very much.

now british historian timothy garton ash is they are an art and to european and there isn't a chapter in contemporary european history he hasn't researched and written about. that down with ashton asked about his fears about the effects of a no deal breaks it. through with a garnishee recently compadres into a soap opera but is it really is so bob crow is it a serious threat to the continent of europe will. a british tragedy is also a fosse right and it it's both those things at the same time in my view the negative consequences for europe could be even more serious than those for britain and what way. because we already see a lot of forces of populism nationalism and disintegration in different ways in the european union and brics it could give

a big push to those forces and is there anything that the european union can do to counter that i hope that they will be doing it this even when they give a long flexible extension for that gives a for a democratic process which will end up with a second referendum and britain may be staying in the u. which would be a fantastic charts for europe or with a softer brics it both. for europe and you think that there is also in europe the perception that britain needs to go through this i hear more and more the argument in continental europe that. britain is going to be such a problematic member of the e.u. the metaphor of poison is used but if we're thinking about long term for decades the prospects of the european union long in relation to china trumps

america to climate change then it's clearly better to have britain inside so it wouldn't be easy initially but we'd get through it and we'd be a better place at the end what do you think if there was no deal what would be the actual outcome what would it mean for for their relations with the i think it would be poison for a generation. i think there'd be a huge blame game. and we would blame it on continental europe the brits would blame it on guns. if you have not me but the brits the continental europe for a month on the brits and then the economic fallout will be. very very seriously. so broke that he is arguing actually it's would be better for europe better for the to not have britain because then europe could move on and could be more integration missed this this may be a surprising form for many of your viewers in the end i think britain or maybe just england will be ok we'll sort of muddle through somehow we'll be poor

a week or less influential but we'll be ok but i'm not so sure all of the european union. will be ok. thank you very much my country. the winner of israel's closest election in years is the man who won the last four elections israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is set to make history and begin a fifth term as prime minister has made challenger centrist benny gantz conceded defeat but leaders of gods as blue and white party say as the opposition they will make life for netanyahu very difficult. benjamin netanyahu trying to get and he was confident of a win on election night even before official results were announced there are no dates and nights of colossal victory colossal i am very moves with the backing of

israel's religious parties netanyahu and his likud party are more strongly placed to form a government together they have a majority of sixty five parliamentary seats out of a total of one hundred twenty. mr nation that israel has entrusted me for the fifth time. with an even greater trust . that the when did we ever get so many seats i don't remember. netanyahu looks set to become israel's longest serving prime minister but only if he remains in office after possibly going to court over corruption allegations he appears unruffled about the chances of an indictment. netanyahu is new government could drift even further to the right in his present run in a bid to bolster support he promised to annex israeli settlements in the west bank and unprecedented move more than four hundred thousand jewish settlers live in the

settlements which are considered illegal under international law netanyahu is victory comes as a blow to palestinians. all israeli leaders work against the palestinian people. especially this government they've grouped all the right wing extremists around netanyahu. and home. reaction among israeli voters with mixed i'm devastated absolutely devastated. we're surrounded by rightwing radical people who want to airlift mall spirits henri's in this part we're never going to have peace i'm terribly upset here of these saddened and it's the shock of my last four was sure that this time we would win i'm very pleased about it because the fingerprint always a great leader. is ready and strong country. the world's

country and i think it will be better and. i don't think there. are guns and every enough experience. and that's the reason i'm very happy about the results. u.s. president trump is. so pleased he's convinced netanyahu can advance the middle east peace process he offered his congratulations. the official results are due thursday and the pentagon has already conceded israeli president ruben rivlin still has two weeks to decide whom to assign the task of forming a new government. now astronomers have revealed what they're calling a ground breaking development using a global network of telescopes they photographed the edge of a black hole for the very first time now black holes are incredibly complex celestial objects with such strong gravitational fields that even light get sucked

into that. this is the image that changed astronomy forever. eight radio telescopes in different locations across the globe have made the invisible visible . in a faraway galaxies called m eighty seven there's a black hole a massive unseen object so dense it sucks up anything that comes close even light itself the point of no return the boundary beyond which there's no escape from a black hole gravitational pull is called the event horizon. world famous scientist albert einstein predicted the size and shape of this boundary one hundred years ago. in one thousand nine hundred fifteen albert einstein imagine that this idea that a very big weight transforms geometry that when the mass is to has he you make

a hole a mysterious hole where nothing can get out of it where all its absorbed astronomers can't see black holes they inferred their existence from the strange orbit of the stars around them and they say you'd need a radio telescope as large as the earth to image the hot matter swirling at the event horizon of a black hole but by using the telescopes and various locations synchronized with atomic clocks they could gather enough data to create this remarkable image. you may wonder how this image was made in the first place event horizon telescope data it's like incomplete puzzle set we actually only see the pieces of the real true image and then we have to feeling these gaps of this missing pieces to construct their physically possible image that is actually much our data

people from forty countries work together to create this virtual observatory called the event horizon telescope and analyze the data. astronomers want to explore how matter can disappear from our world forever and take a deeper look into einstein's theory of relativity and his initial theory on black holes. from a distance black hole seem wondrous but of course there are the most terrifying things in the universe. amazing stuff well that was the day as ever the conversation continues online go find us on twitter either at the news or at some ugly yes that's my handle don't forget to use our hash tag the day and we'll leave you with some images of german basketball great dirk nowitzki after twenty one years at the dallas mavericks he's calling it quits remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another
