Myanmar's opposition National League for Democracy led by Aung San Suu Kyi has won a historical victory in the first free election in 25 years. The Result should bring an end to more than 50 years of military-led government. From Yangon, here's our correspondent Jonah Fisher. Myanmar's first contested vote in 25 years has been remarkable both in the way it was conducted and the gracious response of the losers. Of course, much could still go wrong, remember the result back in 1990, was announced and then ignored. But it does feel different this time, Aung San SuuKyi now has enough MPs in parliament to outvote the unelected Burmese army representatives and put her candidate in the presidency. It can't be her. She's barred from taking the job because her sons have British passports.

由昂山素季领导的反对派民盟获得了具有历史意义的胜利，这是缅甸25年来举行的首次自由大选。其结果也将改变50多年来的军事统治。请听本台记者约拿·费希尔为您从仰光发回的报道。不管是从选举方式，还是从失利者的大度回应上，缅甸25年来的首次民主选举意义重大。当然，此次选举或许不会一帆风顺，回顾1990年的缅甸大选，结果宣布后遭到撤销。但此次选举大为不同，昂山素季拥有足够的议会席位，并能够通过票数击败缅甸军政府代表，并有权推举候选人担任总统。总统不会是她。由于昂山素季儿子拥有英国国籍，昂山素季没有担任总统的资格。

Lebanon is observing a day of national mourning for more than 40 people killed in twin suicide bombings on Thursday in the capital Beirut. The Islamic State militant group said it was responsible for the attacks. Sebastian Usher reports. This isn't the first time that southern suburbs where Hezbollah has its main stronghold has been attacked. This has been a course since Hezbollah joined the Syrian conflict on the side of president al-Assad. And this is on a different scale from what we've seen. This one seems to be designed, like the kind of attack we got used to see in, for example, in Baghdad when you have suicide bomb attacks happening almost the same time. It's a tactic to trying to kill as many people as possible during evening rush hours as mosque worshippers are leaving in a busy narrow street.
