Former general Prabowo Subianto leads in Indonesian presidential election

The former military strongman Prabowo Subianto has claimed victory in Indonesia's presidential election.

The former military strongman and current defence minister Prabowo Subianto has claimed victory in Indonesia's presidential election, after several state-approved polling samples showed him winning around 58 percent of the vote. 

Also in the programme: The Israeli defence force has launched a wave of air strikes on southern Lebanon in response to rocket attacks which killed a woman in the north of Israel; and scientists say they've compiled the first detailed proof that great apes like to tease each other.
