Mugabe's noon deadline approaches
Updated | By Sky News
If Robert Mugabe
does not stand down as president today, he will face impeachment proceedings.

The leader of the country's influential war veterans association has echoed that warning from Zanu-PF.
The ruling party sacked Mugabe yesterday, giving him until midday to step down.
In a speech on state TV last night, Mugabe promised to rule over the party's congress next month.
LISTEN - Full speech below:
Chris Mutsvangwa is with Zimbabwe's War Vets. He believes Mugabe is out of touch with reality:
"We are very concerned about the people of Zimbabwe. They are a peaceful and disciplined people. They expected that the engagement with the military forces would bring the result that they desire. It clearly seems that he is blind and deaf to what the people are saying," he said.
Mugabe's ousted deputy, Emmerson Mnangagwa was named as the party's interim chief.
Many Zimbabweans had expected the 93-year-old leader to resign after the army seized power last week.
He's told the country he's aware of the military's concerns.
"I, as the President of Zimbabwe, and as their commander-in-chief do acknowledge the issues they have drawn my attention to and do believe that these were raised in the spirit of honesty and out of deep and patriotic concern," he said.
