America has said military strikes on Islamic State extremists marked the beginning of a sustainable and persistent campaign against the Islamic State Jihadists. Last night, five Arab nations were involved with the United States in waves of attacks on IS positions in Syria. President Obama said the Islamic militants would be denied a safe haven anywhere. Aleem Maqbool reports from Washington.
美國方面表示關(guān)于對伊斯蘭極端恐怖組織的打擊標(biāo)志著對伊斯蘭圣戰(zhàn)組織長期持續(xù)持久戰(zhàn)的開始。昨晚,五個阿拉伯國家,包括美國開始了對敘利亞IS基地組織展開大規(guī)模進攻。奧巴馬總統(tǒng)表示伊斯蘭武裝分子將會被打擊到天涯海角。Aleem Maqbool從華盛頓發(fā)回報道。
“The Pentagon described the airstrikes in Syria as very successful, saying they targeted militant training centers, commander control facilities and storage hubs. Unverified reports from a Syrian rights group says at least 120 militants were killed both from Islamic State and an al-Qaeda affiliate, but also said there’ve been some civilian death. President Obama has been keen to stress it’s not America’s fight alone. And Arab States actively carried out some of the airstrikes in Syria. When asked how long this campaign could last, one American official said we should be thinking in terms of years.”
五角大樓方面稱此次敘利亞行動非常成功,稱集中了伊斯蘭武裝分子訓(xùn)練中心,指揮控制設(shè)施和倉儲中心。從敘利亞人權(quán)組織發(fā)回的不確定報道稱此次襲擊造成至少120名伊斯蘭武裝分子和基地組織成員死亡,但是還成同時造成了不少居民的死亡。奧巴馬曾經(jīng)強調(diào)過這不是美國孤軍奮戰(zhàn),阿拉伯國家也積極參與到了此次在敘利亞的行動。當(dāng)問及到行動將持續(xù)多長時間時,一名美國官員稱此次行動可能持續(xù)數(shù)年。

“Dozens of villages across Syria’s Kurdish north are already deserted. Now Islamic State has approaching the major border town of Kabani, population 400,000. The UN is preparing for all of those people to flee into Turkey. Amid widespread reports of serious violations, including the deliberate killing of women and children, no one wants to risk waiting for Islamic State to arrive. Syria’s refugees already number more than 3 million. Now that could rise by another half million.”

The Spanish government has withdrawn its controversial plans to limit the rights to abortion. The conservative Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy had wanted to have restrictions making it available only in case of rape and when there was a risk to the mother’s health. But he said the governing popular party had not been able to reach an agreement on the proposals. Abortion is currently freely available up to the 14th week of pregnancy.

“It’s none a written rule of the constitution conversations with the monarch should remain private and discreet. But as David Cameron stroke through the Bloomberg building in New York, talking to the company’s founder, he provided the glimpse of the relief felt by the Prime Minister and the Palace when Scotland voted no. Recalling that he had called the Queen to say “It’s all right”, Mr. Cameron then seemed to say she purred down the line. I have never heard someone so happy. The audio was caught on a TV microphone as Cameron followed the pair. Downing Street said it would not be commenting on the suggestion of purring.” Buckingham Palace has made it clear that the Queen would not comment on the question of Scottish independence.
