The Nigerian Islamist militant group Boko Haram says it will sell more than 200 school girls who were kidnapped 3 weeks ago. The girls were taken from a school in the northeast of the country, Tomi Oladipo reports from Abuja.
尼日利亚伊斯兰激进组织博科圣地表示，将供应三周前绑架的200多名女学生，这类女生是被从该国东北部的一所学校带走的。 Tomi Oladipo在阿布贾报道。
In a video released today, the leader of the Islamist extremist group Boko Haram, standing in front of an armored car, says I abducted your girls. Abubakar Shekau adds I will sell the women in the market by Allah. For the relatives of the abducted girls, the video confirms their worst fears. Their grief and heartbreak has moved the world in the 3 weeks since they went missing, weeks in which seeming government inaction has led to anger and demonstrations. Nigeria's president has been accused of not doing enough to rescue the girls.
在今天发布的一个视频中，伊斯兰极端组织博科圣地的领袖站在一辆武装车前说：我绑架了你们的女生，我会把她们卖到市场上。对于遭绑架女生的亲属们来讲，该视频让他们很害怕，自女生们失踪三周来他们的忧虑和心碎令世界动容。这几周政府的无所作为好像致使了愤怒和游行，大家指责尼日利亚总统在营救女生们的事情上不作为。
State Department officials in Washington say the Syrian opposition coalition has been given approval to open a formal diplomatic mission. Until now the Syrian opposition had only an informal liaison office in the United States. Barbara Plett Usher is in Washington.
美国国务院官员称叙利亚反对派网盟已获准开启正式外交使团，到现在为止，叙利亚反对派在美国只有非正式的联络办事处。 Barbara Plett Usher在华盛顿报道。
The US decision does not grant the coalition recognition as Syria's government, nor allow it to take over the Syrian embassy. Rather, officials here described the move as another step towards formalizing America's relationship with the moderate opposition. This will facilitate banking and security services as well as help the opposition promote its image in the US and its outreach to the Syrian diaspora. The State Department also announced an extra 27 million dollars in aid. So far, the US has provided non-lethal assistance, although there is a debate in the administration about moving to more military support.
美国的决定并没将该网盟视为叙利亚政府，也没允许该机构取代叙利亚使馆。华盛顿官员称此举是将美国与该温和反对派关系合法化的另一步。这或有利于银行和安全服务，与帮助反对派改变其在美国的形象，帮助其向叙利亚侨民提供帮助。国务院还宣布提供另外2700万USD的援助，到现在为止，美国提供了非致命援助，尽管政府在提供更多军事援助方面存在分歧。
The monitoring group, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says clashes are continuing between rival Islamist rebel groups in the northern city of Deir ez-Zor. The group says more than 40 members of the al-Nusra Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant have been killed. The fighting has continued despite a call for a ceasefire from an al-Qaeda leader.
叙利亚人权察看组织称敌对的伊斯兰叛军组织在北部城市代尔祖尔的冲突仍在继续，该组织称努斯拉阵线和ISIS有40多名成员丧生。尽管基地组织一名领导人呼吁停火，战斗现在仍在继续。
Four Ukrainian soldiers have been killed and an attack helicopter shot down in heavy fighting between government forces and pro-Russian militants in the eastern city of Sloviansk. It's reported that the rebels who have occupied government buildings in several towns and cities across the region have retreated into Sloviansk city center. Richard Galpin is in the region's main city Donetsk.
乌克兰政府军和亲俄罗斯军队在东部城市斯拉维扬斯克发生激战，4名乌克兰士兵丧生，一架武装直升机被击落。据了解在该区域几个城镇占领政府大楼的叛军们已撤回斯拉维扬斯克市中心。理查德•加尔潘在该区域的顿涅茨克报道。
This fighting took place effectively in the outskirts of the city. The government troops may have moved a little bit further towards the center, but they are not there yet, and obviously that's critical, because the rebels remain in control. They have hundreds, if not 1 or 2 thousand fighters there according to estimates I have seen, and they control all the main government buildings there. So we still don't know what the strategy of the Ukrainian military is. But if they do go into towards the center, it will be a very big and bloody battle.
这场战斗发生在该市的郊区，政府军可能已经转移，但向市中心挺进了一些，但还没有抵达市中心，显然这是很重要的，由于叛军仍在控制那里，且在当地部署有起码数百名武装分子，我都是我依据所见所闻估计的，叛军可能还在控制那里的政府大楼。所以大家仍不了解乌克兰军队现在的策略，但假如他们向市中心挺进，那将是一场很大规模的血腥战斗。

Pakistan has lost thousands of lives in its fights against terror, and economy has suffered very badly at the hands of terrorism. So if we can avoid any further bloodshed, if can we can make this process somehow successful. I think it will be perhaps the best option for Pakistan.
