Ukraine has accused Russia of launching a new military incursion across its eastern boarder. Heavy fighting has been taking place on the wide front in the southeast Ukraine. Pro-Russian forces are reported to have seized the coastal town of Novoazovsk. Fighting is also continuing further north around the cities of Donetsk and Luhansk. Hopes appear to be fading that Tuesday's talks between the presidents of the two countries might help resolve the ongoing crisis. The reported incursion had raised concern in Western capitals. Barbara Plett Usher reports from Washington.
乌克兰指责俄罗斯越过东部的边境发动新的军事入侵。乌克兰东南部的漫长前线发生了激烈的战斗。据报道亲俄罗斯武装已经占领了滨海城市Novoazovsk。战斗还继续向北一直蔓延到顿涅茨克和卢甘斯克市。大家原本期望两国总统星期二的协商能解决现在的危机,但这一期望愈加渺茫了。据报道这次入侵令西方国家首都感到担心,芭芭拉[Barbara Plett Usher]华盛顿报道。
The German Chancellor Angela Merkel has demanded an explanation from Russia's President Vladimir Putin. In Washington the State Department spokeswoman Jane Sackey said a Russian-directed counter-offensive was likely under way. She cited reports of additional columns of tanks, rocket launchers and armoured vehicles crossing the boarder into a previously peaceful part of eastern Ukraine. The suspicion is that Moscow is opening a new front to diverge Ukrainian forces from the besieged cities of Donetsk and Luhansk, where they have made significant advances against pro-Russian separatists. Russia denies helping the rebels, but Western governments insist it's propping them up with a steady flow of weapons.
德国总理安吉拉·默克尔[Angela Merkel]已经需要俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京[Vladimir Putin]作出讲解,国务院女发言人简·萨基[Jane Sackey]在华盛顿称,以俄罗斯为主导的反攻可能正在进行中,她引自报道里的说法,称有坦克、火箭发射器和装甲车越过边境,进入之前原本平静的顿涅茨克和卢甘斯克。大家怀疑莫斯科打开新的前线来分流被围困城市顿涅茨克和卢甘斯克的乌克兰军队,这两个城市之前在应对亲俄罗斯分裂分子方面获得重大的进展。俄罗斯不承认帮助叛军,但西方国家政府坚称俄罗斯一直不断向叛军提供武器。
The mother of an American journalist Steven Sotloff, who's being held by Islamic State militants, has released an emotional video appeal to his captors. Shirley Sotloff addressed her plead directly to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-declared caliph leader of Islamic State.
被“伊斯兰国”武装分子劫持的美国记者史蒂芬·索特洛夫[Steven Sotloff]的妈妈向逮捕者发布动情的视频呼吁,雪莉·索特洛夫[Shirley Sotloff]直接向自封为领袖的“伊斯兰国”哈里发领袖艾卜·伯克尔人巴格达迪[Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi]进行恳求。
Since Steven's capture I've learnt a lot about Islam. I've learnt that Islam teaches that no individual should be held responsible for the sins of others. Steven has no control over the actions of the US government. He's an innocent journalist. I've always learnt that you, the caliph, can grant amnesty. I ask you to please release my child.
“自从史蒂芬[Steven]被捕以来我学了大量的古兰经经义,我获悉,古兰经教会说,没什么人应该为其他人的罪行负责。史蒂芬[Steven]没控制美国政府的行动,他是无辜的记者。我还了解你作为哈里发是可以赦免他的,我恳请你释放我的孩子。”
Steven Sotloff was shown last week at the end of an Islamic State video of the beheading of fellow journalist James Foley.
上周在“伊斯兰国”视频中显示了被砍头的记者詹姆斯·弗利[James Foley]后,还出现了记者史蒂芬·索特洛夫[Steven Sotloff]的画面。
The UN Security Council has unanimously passed a resolution on Libya that calls for an immediate ceasefire and includes sanctions for those involved in the violence. It also urges all parties to engage in an inclusive Libyan-led political dialogue in order to help restore stability. Nada Tawfik reports from the UN in New York.
联合国安理会已经全体一致通过关于利比亚的决议,需要立即停火,并包含对参与暴行者进行制裁。同时敦促各方进行以利比亚为主导的全方位政治对话,以帮助恢复稳定。纳达·陶菲克[Nada Tawfik]联合国总部纽约报道。
The resolution is aimed at leaders of warring militias and those who support them. It threatens individuals and groups that endanger the security of Libya or undermine the political transition with sanctions, such as asset freezes or travel bans. It also tightens the arms embargo by requiring advanced approval of any sale or transfer of arms to the country. The Libyan ambassador to the UN Ibrahim Dabbashi called the resolution a milestone while warning that Libya might unravel into a full-blown civil war.
这次决议是针对交战民兵领袖与其支持者。它威胁称要对危及利比亚安定或影响政治过渡的个人和组织进行制裁,譬如资产冻结和旅游限制。它还加大了武器的禁运,需要任何向该国供应或运输武器的行为都需要经上级批准。利比亚驻联合国大使易卜拉欣·达巴希[Ibrahim Dabbashi]称这次决议是一座里程碑,还警告说利比亚可能会进入全方位的内战。

Germany's government has proposed a law to cut the welfare payments of EU migrants after six months of unemployment and to deport or imprison any that are convicted of making fraudulent claims. The interior minister said the regulations could come into force next year. The number of Europeans moving to Germany for work has increased, but a BBC corespondent in Berlin says statistics show people are not traveling from poorer countries to claim welfare payments. Sixteen German males appeared last year for help with unemployed EU migrants.
德国政府已经推出一项法律,削减失业6个月的欧洲移民福利,并驱逐或囚禁任何有不实需要的移民。内政部长说该规定将于明年开始推行。为获得工作机会向德国移民的欧洲人数目已经增加,但BBC驻柏林的记者说统计数据显示从贫困国家来的人不再需要福利待遇。去年有16名德国男子需要帮助失业的欧洲移民。
Archaeologists in Britain says they've unearthed a 2,000-year-old perfectly preserved wooden toilet seat which dates from the Roman Empire. James Copnall reports.
英国家公务员考试古学家称他们挖掘出完美保存的2000年前的木质坐便器,可追溯到罗马帝国。詹姆斯[James Copnall]报道。
The archaeologist who found the wooden toilet seat said it looked pretty comfortable. He added that it was probably preferable to a cold stone seat given Britain's chilly climate. The toilet seat apparently dates from the Roman Empire. It was discovered in a muddy trench in an ancient Roman fort in northern England. Many samples of stone and marble latrines have survived from Roman times, but the experts believe that this is the first time a wooden seat has been found. James Copnall
挖掘出这个木质坐便器的考古学家称这个古物看起来很舒服,他说在英国寒冷的气候下,木质坐便器可能要比寒冷的石质坐便器舒服。这个坐便器好像可追溯到罗马帝国,是在英格兰北部罗马古城堡的泥泞沟渠里挖掘的。不少石质和大理石公共卫生间都是罗马年代保存下来的,但专家觉得这是发现的第一个木质坐便器。詹姆斯[James Copnall]报道。
