There have been jubilant scenes in Chile after an overwhelming majority voted in support of rewriting Chile's constitution, which dates to the military rule of Gen Augusto Pinochet.

With almost all the ballots counted, 78% had voted "yes" in a referendum that was called after mass protests against inequality.

President Sebastián Piñera praised the peaceful vote.

He said it was "the beginning of a path that we must all walk together".
