Former Israeli PM and president Shimon Peres has died aged 93.
He suffered a stroke two weeks ago and his condition improved before a sudden deterioration on Tuesday.
Mr Peres, who was one of the last of a generation of Israeli politicians present at the new nation's birth in 1948, served twice as the country's prime minister and once as president.
He won the Nobel Peace prize in 1994 for his role negotiating peace accords with the Palestinians a year earlier.
