we'll see a, a come back by benjamin netanyahu. well, nothing is for certain right now. i mean, if you look at the pulse, neither blocker, the right thing, nationalist, a religious block that is lead by the former prime minister benjamin netanyahu has the majority. he fitted also the previous elections to form a coalition government. but if you look at the polls also, it shows that the liquid, his party has gained some strength. but i think it's still too early to tell what we will see in elections that might take place in october. tanya kramer in jerusalem, thank you so much for that breaking news update. and let's take a quick look at some other stories making headlines at this hour french president ammonia macklin has lost his absolute majority and sundays parliamentary elections . my course lock still emerged with a biggest number of seats in the new national assembly, but left us and far right party serge. my call may now have trouble in acting his reform agenda. former gorilla fighter, the several petro has won columbia's presidential election in landmark victory.

but his benjamin netanyahu was engineered the downfall. busy of this coalition government, he has been israelis prime and israel prime minister for a total of 15 years previously, and he wants the job back. and what netanyahu did was with his coalition opposition partners, he voted down the renewal, the normal standard, automatic annual renewal of a secular bill that extends israeli law into the settlements. this expires at the end of this month without his renewal, that sort of legal chaos. in the settlement, so the coalition governing coalition realize that he's not gonna be able to get this bill passed. so they've accepted that they're going to dissolve parliament and go to new elections. netanyahu gets what he wants new elections and maybe the chance to come back as prime minister on the settler bill, because the connected is being dissolved, will be automatically extended now for 6 months until a new government can vote on it. they'll be elections now. probably not before. sometime in october, i paid, he will take over entering prime m

brent: and we know that former president benjamin netanyahu has vowed to return. mean, what are the chances for election after the opposition's coalition experiment failed? tania: that is still to see. if you look at the polls, at the moment -- we always talk here in israel about coalition governments formed by several parties. neither bloc, or if you look at the coalition like this one, would have a majority right now to form a government. even some of the smaller parties that are now in the government according to these polls might not make it over the electoral threshold. but of course a lot can change in the coming weeks and months until the elections take place. we heard already former prime minister benjamin netanyahu valid that he will be back and that he wants to form a broad nationalist white -- right-wing government. he also fared in the last -- failed in the last four elections to form such a government. he is certainly hoping for such a comeback, but of course a lot can happen until the elections take place. brent: tania kramer with the latest. as alwa

benjamin netanyahu though definitely has a path.mber of seats, but it is not necessarily clear that his bloc of right wing parties will have enough to get the majority needed to actually become prime minister. but he will have one less competitor and that is because naftali bennett announced yesterday that he will not run for re-election and that he is stepping back from politics. >> hadas gold for us in jerusalem, thank you. keep us posted. >>> it has been called the most dangerous place on earth and may also be nato's most vulnerable region. the 60 mile stretch of land straddling lit waynhuania and i might be putin's next target. ninas dos santos is joining us live. why focus on this area, just the g geographic proximity? >> reporter: yes, it is where russia's allies could start to join the territory that is currently stranded in the baltic. this is the russian enclave that now with the adherence to sweden and finland to nato will find itself alone in an increasing nato area. that is the concern that many policymakers have had giv

key sort of unifying factor of this very diverse group of parties was basically to get rid of benjamin netanyahuisrael's longest serving prime minister, still very popular among his base with somebody who very much divided israeli voters. it became really the stumbling block in a series of elections that were inconclusive over several years. so it was last year that this coalition came together under naftali bennett, including blocks from the left and the right and for the first time, an independent arab— israeli party but really over the last months and weeks, has being on its knees and i think just run out of road by this point. there was a key vote that has been unable to get through, suffered a series of rebellions and defections, and so what we had tonight is naftali bennett, and the so—called alternate prime minister, yail lapid, a centrist politician who will now become prime minister if this vote goes again —— goes ahead next week. we can now speak to natan sachs who's director of the center for middle east policy at brookings. his work focuses on israeli foreign policy and domestic anyo

it should be benjamin netanyahu.are so many right-wing parties that will not sit with him but -- that has been part of the reason for this ongoing chaos. he will not step aside. he has made that plane. so will he be able to do what he has not been able to do in the previous four elections? there will be lots of small parties amalgamating. will that make enough of a difference? there are still enough parties that will not sit with him that it is impossible to predict. mark: irris makler, you will be guide us -- there to guide us for whatever happens. it's never a dull moment in israeli politics. thank you very much. great to see you. the move to close down an award-winning news website has drawn criticism on the philippines. outgoing president roderigo deter tate made it his last order. rappler's founder was awarded the nobel peace prize for her work. the former u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton is among those speaking out against the clampdown. dutere has left office and no word yet on his successor's stance on

and remind us all the control the sea around benjamin netanyahu is the realistically going to be able to get his job back given or that still going on. while he's currently on trial for corruption charges he denies and the hope is amongst him and his support is that by being prime minister again, he can delay or somehow bring an end to the trial. he remains individually popular people see him as potentially good prime minister, 46 percent of his railey seem as a potentially good prime minister. they might not necessarily like him, but like what he does as prime minister. yeah. i lactaid who will really be the main contender against him. he's got about 15 percent support and 15 percent of the population. see him as prime minister. prime ministerial material is gone for months, therefore, to prove it worth to try and show he's better suited to the job. the netanyahu netanyahu's la coud party just had an edge in the polls about 46. they might win the most of the seats, but not quite enough seats to command an overall majority. so you could yet have another election after want to november

the only real reason that coalition came together is because they all agreed that they wanted benjamin netanyahu out have that's why they came together for these really palestinian em case voting for this low would have been voting for a continuation of the occupation of simply something that they couldn't do it through the government into a complete tailspin. now there are 3 likely scenarios. the 1st one least likely is that the government simply staggered on until the end of the summer recess, hoping that something might change the least likely the scenario. the 2nd scenario is that there is a vote of no confidence in the government that could come early as wednesday. meaning that the early elections, again, in israel is also a number of elections because of this coalition building. we will over the last 3 years, but elections are unpopular with the electro thing for too many of them in fall to shorter space. so it could well be that under the current method, a new coalition could be formed not paved the way for somebody that benjamin netanyahu to come in and actually become part of the govern

and that unequal system, what chance is that that benjamin netanyahu will be returning immediately? indeed, that is the question i, i would say that it is something one should certainly take seriously. look, this government has more than 3 years to run. i think one can confidently bet ouse . all that not happening. it's a question. i think most people to day would wake up and say is it's a question of weeks perhaps months. definitely not years. the transition from one prime minister to another bennett to this foreign minister guy law id is, i was categorically say it's not going to happen that you next year. not on yahoo. still, polls higher than anyone else with the public in terms of who would you like to see is mr. he's him as a leader of really good. that party still holds higher than any other party. it tends to come down to what we're talking about today. these coalition machinations so whether not in yahoo, either in the current parliament or after an election can cobble this magical 61 together is an open question. but it is absolutely a possibility. and let's just recognize

so we heard already prime former prime minister benjamin netanyahu, knowing that he will be back or that he wants to form abroad. nationalist wiping a government. but of course, he also failed in the last 4 elections a to for him as such a government. so i, he certainly hoping for come back. but of course, you know, a lot can happen until the elections take place on agreement with the ladies tonight from jerusalem is always telling you. thank you. a court in japan has upheld a ban on same sex marriage saying the ban is constitutional. 3 same sex couples had sued for compensation, saying their rights were quality and free. union have been violated and they blow to eligibility rights. the court rejected their debates, anger, and disappointment for the theme sex couples in japan who petitioned for their right to maddie the will. thank god, district court ruling has come as a shock. he duly hung it to the level. only i think it is a debt of building deed was that it does constitutional, that people are being discriminated against for their sexuality or something. they cannot change a hotel.

this does provide an opening, a path for benjamin netanyahu to return to power, especially if the our he's facing an ongoing corruption trial. what the polls do show him facing and having quite a strong showing, it's not clear that even then he will have that 60 one or more majority needed to form a stable and running coalition. that also means it will be the one who will welcome president obama to israel when he is expected to make that visit to israel, the west bank and saudi arabia next month. it will be him who welcomes him on the red carpet and not in as planned. despite the political shakeup, the white house is indicating biden will still come to israel as planned, saying we have a strategic relationship with israel that goes beyond any one government. >> president biden is affected to arrive in israel on july 13th. thank you very much. >>> finally, we want to wish all our viewers a happy juneteenth. this is the second year of the official federal holiday honoring the day back in 1865 that enslaved people in galveston, texas learned they had been freed more than two years earlie

israel is headed for its fifth election in three years, could this mean a return to power for benjamin netanyahurmer prime minister? joel: it could be, but he would have to put together a majority coalition, which is complicated in the israeli system. while his party has done well, they cannot rule without coalition of other parties. it will be difficult for him to do that. nothing is really certain at the moment. laura: president biden is heading to the middle east in three weeks. can he advanced u.s. aims in israel when the political situation is this chaotic? joel: there will be no change in government policy in the short-term, but with the election expected in october, the current leadership is going to rotate -- the current foreign minister will be prime minister, so the will be contuity, but the outcome of the election, for example, the return of netanyahu to power, nothing would change, i think. it is a short-termargain, whatever agreements are hamd out between by -- biden in the next prime minister. laura: is this a tense time with israel as the shadow war with iran heats up? joel: there

eight parties from left to right, the xglue that stuck the together was their desire to unseat benjamin netanyahu and also end the endless cycle of in-conclusive elections. we had three without a government to be able to be formed. so now they managed to form a government and managed to aside their ideological differences. allowing naftali bennett to come on board. and for a while it worked. they passed the first state budget in four years. they deepened ties and reopened the israeli economy. but ultimately the differences proved too strong to overcome. and it wasn't just differences between parties, it was differences within parties in particular and naftali bennett' right wing party which has been seemingly fraying at the seams since the very beginning a year ago and in recent weeks that fraying has turned into a full-scale unwinding almost. ultimately they decided if we dissolve the government now, we are doing so of our own accord, we are on the front foot and we will do so from the prime minister's residence rather than having events overtake them and being left with no choice to do so. so i

of course that does provide an opening for benjamin netanyahu to try to come back into power.ority necessary to have a governing coalition. what it also means is that it will be lapid who will be the one to welcome joe biden with his visit next month. and the white house is saying despite the political shakeup, they still plan to have that visit. >> just fascinating. hadas, thank you. >>> and just ahead, the missed phone call causing additional anguish for the wife of a basketball star detained in russia. new dove ultimate antiperspirant. our unique water baseded formula and 6x more glycerin. helps restore skin to its best condition. new dove ultimate. i booked our hotel on kayak. it's flexible if we need to cancel. cancel. i haven't left the house in years. nothing wi stop me from vacation. no canling.
