Zimbabwe awaits news on Mugabe's future
Zimbabweans are waiting to see what steps the military will take next after seizing control of the country. President Robert Mugabe is said to be under house arrest but the whereabouts of his wife Grace, who was bidding to succeed him as president, are unknown.
South African ministers have been in the capital Harare meeting the army and political parties. The Southern African Development Community (SADC) regional bloc will hold emergency talks on Thursday.
President Mugabe, 93, has been in control of Zimbabwe since it gained independence from Britain in 1980. But the power struggle over who might succeed him, between Mrs Mugabe and her rival former vice-president Emmerson Mnangagwa, has split the ruling Zanu-PF party in recent months.

The muslims are not mixing. They still control their own, keeping them in the fold.
They don't get far with sharia... yet. There is now talk about doing official sharia for some parts of France, which is a quarter muslim. Perhaps it won't happen until France is a third muslim. Ultimately, it will happen.
In the history of the world, how many places can you find that have escaped islam? I can only think of southern Spain and most of Israel. Lebanon was Christian, Afghanistan was Buddhist... and the cancer grows to conquer the whole earth.
Muslim population in the USA is rapidly growing. Once it reaches a certain level, it will demand and get a special status. Once it solidly dominates, the genocide of non-muslims begins.
