Earlier today, soldiers took over Zimbabwe's ZBC state TV broadcaster and made a statement while compounding speculation of a coup against 93-year-old President Robert Mugabe.

The armed forces commander, Constantine Chiwenga who has detained Mugabe and his wife, announced during the nationwide broadcast that the military would stop "those bent on hijacking the revolution".

Analysts have described the Zimbabwean military's house arrest of President Robert Mugabe, his wife Grace, and other top state officials as a coup d'état, despite military leaders denying that it has usurped the presidency.

"It is definitely a coup, in the sense that there's been a military intervention in the highest office of the state and state functionaries, such as the public broadcaster have been taken over," says Liesl Louw-Vaudron, analyst for the Institute of Security Studies.
