The Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has struck a deal to form a coalition government shortly before deadline expired. Mr. Netanyahu reached an agreement with the far-right Jewish home party, Bayit Yehudi, led by Naftali Bennet, which will guarantee the slimmest possible majority. Kevin Connolly is in Jerusalem.

Mr. Netanyahu had entered the last day of talks with fifty-three of the parliamentary seats he needed in the bag out of the sixty-one required for a majority in Israel's a-hundred-and-twenty-seat Parliament. The party, with the last stake vote he needed, was thus able to drive a hard bargain. , Bayit Yehudi which enjoys strong support among settlers on the West Bank, will control the powerful Justice Ministry.

Political campaigning for Thursday's general election in Britain has now drawn to a close. The Prime Minister, David Cameroon, said the Conservatives will protect recent economic gains. His main rival, Labour's Ed Miliband, promised to protect working families. Here is our U.K. political correspondent, Robinson. In his final appeal to the voters, David Cameroon said Britain was stronger than it was five years ago, but there was more work to do. While Labour's Ed Miliband insisted he was the best man to lead the country. But the rise of the Scottish National Party and that the faction of Conservative and Labour voters toward used-to-be-considered fringe parties, such as UKIP and the Greens, means neither Mr. Cameroon nor Mr. Miliband is likely to win outright, so expects all the sleep-deprived politicians to soon be facing the exhausting challenge of somehow forming a stable government.

The President of Burundi, Pierre Nkurunziza, says his bid to become President for a third term in June's election will be his last. In an address to the nation, he also promised the immediate release of children arrested in bloody protests sparked by his controversial decision, which the opposition says is unconstitutional. President Nkurunziza added that hundreds of others will also be freed if the protest stopped. His opponents immediately said the demonstrations would continue.

The end of the Spanish football season has been thrown into doubt, with the National Federation saying 'it's suspending all competitions from the sixteenth of this month in a multiled dispute with the government. Here is our sports reporter, x.

The Spanish Federation's move followed the announcement last week of new legislation governing the selling of television rights to broadcast football. Collective bargaining will replace the existing structure whereby clubs negotiate their own TV contracts, which favours more popular teams, like Real Madrid and Barcelona. The top two leagues in Spain support the change, but the influential Football Federation and the Players' Union are opposed to certain aspects of the deal. They want further negotiations with the government.
