of the federal government. in order to keep mr ramaphosa in office, the anc was forced to form a government of national unity with other parties, including the main opposition democratic alliance. its leader, john steenhuisen, is now expected to join the government. he told reporters why he backed mr ramaphosa staying in power the people have spoken. they have not given any party a majority. mr rama posa is the leader of his party. he is the leader of his party. he is the leader of a party that is committed to constitutionalism, democracy and its institutions. our africa correspondent, barbara plett—usher, has more from cape town. zero rama posa played a key role to end apartheid 30 years ago. now he'll steer south africa through a seismic shift in its politics. he won the democratic alliance shortly before they came to an agreement on a power—sharing agreement, which does include smaller party but really they are at the two key players. this was very controversial within the anc because the democratic alliance has a reputation of representing the interests of the white minority. it denies this, it's a hard reputation to shake. it's free market agenda also clashes with the anc social welfare policy. but anc leaders said this arrangement was really the best way to bring stability to the country. the next step is to allocate cabinet positions. this will include members of the democratic alliance. this multiparty arrangement will not include anc breakaway factions such as the marxist economic freedom fighters and also the mk party of the former presidentjacob zuma. they will probably benefit if this new government fails to deliver the economic improvements for which south africans voted. many south africans voted. many south africans voted. many south africans do hope that this grand unprecedented alliance coalition does succeed. the us imposed financial sanctions on an extremist israeli group on friday for attacking humanitarian aid convoys heading to gaza. the state department says the us assets of the tsav nine organisation will be frozen and that americans will be barred from dealing with the group. tsav 9 has links to israeli army reservists and militant jewish settlers in the occupied west bank. the sanctions are imposed under an executive order that us presidentjoe biden signed last february to tackle rising settler violence. aid agencies have long warned about the difficulties getting essential supplies into gaza. a spokesman for the un children's agency told the bbc that one aid convoy was denied entry into northern gaza, despite having all the necessary documents to enter. he said such incidents are common. the un warns that more than a million people in gaza could face starvation by the middle ofjuly — unless more aid is allowed into the enclave. for more on the humanitarian challenges in gaza, i spoke to suze van meegen the norwegian refugee council's head of operations in gaza. you've just come out of gaza. what is your operation like that at the moment? can you get humanitarian supplies in? i would say that any organisation that claims a humanitarian response in gaza is adequate or functioning as normal at the moment would be disingenuous. the norwegian refugee council continues to operate in gaza but we're limping along. we have limited supplies, limited access to fuel. we have limited guarantees of safety. so we can say that we're doing with we can with limited resources in an extremely unsafe environment. but like everybody else trying to get aid to people in gaza, it is grossly insufficient.— people in gaza, it is grossly insufficient. �* ., ., insufficient. are you managing to net insufficient. are you managing to get anything _ insufficient. are you managing to get anything into _ insufficient. are you managing to get anything into gaza - to get anything into gaza daily, weekly, fortnightly, what is that like at the moment?— moment?

i go, where is safe for them if anywhere?— go, where is safe for them if anywhere? i can say they are managing — anywhere? i can say they are managing with _ anywhere? i can say they are managing with desperation l anywhere? i can say they are i managing with desperation and an interest in clinging to life in the few resources that they have. it's horrendous to see. millions of people leaving rafah and as you said for the second, third, fourth, eighth or ninth time they've moved for the people of very little. they don't have money to help them with the move. for transport even a few kilometres north. when they get to these areas that are so cold, humanitarian safe zones, we've seen their neither safe nor humanitarian. witnessing people going desperately to areas purely for safety and then arriving to find the same number, the same threats of life it leaves us feeling utterly helpless. in addition to the safety situation and the lack of food. talk to us about the risk of disease that there is as well caused by lack of hygiene and so many people living so close together. we so many people living so close touether. ~ ., ., ~ ., together. we often talk about su lies together. we often talk about sunplies that _ together. we often talk about supplies that aren't _ together. we often talk about supplies that aren't coming i together. we often talk about supplies that aren't coming in j supplies that aren't coming in and we know there's not enough food in gaza. 0ne and we know there's not enough food in gaza. one of the more critical items is safe water. the only way to get safe water to people is if we have a consistent, reliable supply of cool coming through the pipeline from egypt or from israel. that would enable us to pump water, transport that water to those who need it and desalinated, it's very salty water. in the absence of this the risk of famine, starvation, disease goes up enormously. when we talk about the risk of famine in gaza we're notjust talking about a lack of that what we're really talking about is a lack of clean water. the only way we can get that is if we have a reliable fuel pipeline. we have a reliable fuel pipeline-— we have a reliable fuel --ieline. ~ . ., we have a reliable fuel --ieline. ~ . . , pipeline. what have you been told by the — pipeline. what have you been told by the authorities, - pipeline. what have you been told by the authorities, by - pipeline. what have you been | told by the authorities, by the israelis why there isn't what you are describing their what you are describing their what you need?

0n the long—term risks, where do we even begin? on top of health, on top of the risk of disease and famine, the risk of people safety, kids do not see a future for themselves and their parents are deeply concerned about what that is going to do in terms of trauma. the us supreme court on friday struck down a federal ban on bump stocks, marking the latest move in the battle for gun control. bump stocks are gun accessories that allow semi automatic rifles to fire bullets more quickly, similar to a machine gun. in a 6—3 vote, the court's conservative majority ruled that using firearms with the attachment does not meet the definition of a machine gun underfederal law. they determined that then—president trump's administration overstepped its power, when it issued the ban back in 2018. that ban came after the deadliest mass shooting in modern us history. 60 people were killed in las vegas and hundreds injured — when a gunman used a bumpstock attachment to fire more than a thousand rounds of ammunition. while more than a dozen states plus washington dc have already banned them, friday's supreme court ruling puts it back to individual states to determine their own regulaitons for bumpstocks. donald trump's campaign weighed in on the court's decision — saying in part, the right to keep and bear arms has never been more critical, and joe biden wants to take that right away from law—abiding americans. president trump won't let that happen, said the statement. meanwhile, vice president kamala harris had this to say. it was bump stocks that resulted in 60 people being dead in las vegas, nevada on the 1st of october. and what the court did today is really rolling back what otherwise is important progress to be made to prevent gun violence in america. and frankly, when we think about the decisions voters will make in november, there is a clear contrast between where we stand and the former president. joining me live is david hogg — he is a gun safety activist and a survivor of a deadly gun attack on a school in parkland, florida, in 2018. thank you forjoining us on bbc news. you work and campaign for and end to gun violence in this country, when you see the supreme court decisions, reversing the ban on bump stocks, how do you feel? worried, deeply worried about the future. not only because of the future. not only because of the fact that these devices effectively turn a gun like the ar 15 and 70 automatic rifle effectively into a machine gun like we saw in las vegas. ultimately, there is basically no legal case where you can justify using one of these devices. it is meant... it turns these guns into mass murder machines more than anything. it also worries me for the future of our country because we got young people who are losing faith in the supreme court. the nra's been in it for over $2 million supporting far rightjustices like cavanaugh right justices like cava naugh and rightjustices like cavanaugh and getting a return on their investment. what i worry about is a lack of trust in the supreme court. this is not something that the american people are against, 80% of americans support banning pump stocks and the supreme court is going against that. this stocks and the supreme court is going against that.— going against that. this puts it back to — going against that. this puts it back to the _ going against that. this puts it back to the state - going against that. this puts it back to the state to - going against that. this puts it back to the state to make | it back to the state to make decisions. we know in many states they have already banned pump stocks in the six years since the incident at your own high school there has been some progress, especially in your own state of florida, hasn't there?

i about gun control in this country?— about gun control in this count ? ~ ,., , about gun control in this count ? ~ , .,, country? i think sometimes hope in this field, _ country? i think sometimes hope in this field, it — country? i think sometimes hope in this field, it can _ country? i think sometimes hope in this field, it can be _ in this field, it can be delusional. as there are so many shootings that happen over and over and over again. what we have to realise is that this isn'tjust we have to realise is that this isn't just about hopeful that we have to believe that change is possible for that we're just going with the status quo. we're here to change, some things are possible working to change the dynamic if it's impossible, make it possible. that's why i think hope isn't necessarily the right thing i think about. ultimately i know that young americans have the greatest asset that you can have a near side and politics on her side. the fact that we're going to outlive some of the worst leaders in our countries histories by the fact that we're so young. clarence thomas for example is taken millions of dollars and more effectively bribes. we had all the special interests like the nra spent millions of dollars helping to prop up their unpopularjustices like cavanaugh. now people are going to die as a result, unfortunately. that is the consequence was that it's not democrats or republicans as the american people that are going to die as a consequence of this decision because they are helping put to enabled and asks mass shooting.— mass shooting. given that this is an election _ mass shooting. given that this is an election year _ mass shooting. given that this is an election year not - is an election year notjust presidential but the house and so many state—level and local level how many do you think gun control will be?
