The Italian Coast Guard has said that nearly 10,000 migrants were rescued in?the?last week alone as they tried to make the journey across the Mediterranean1 Sea. Nine hundred were rescued today. In the latest tragedy, 40 more migrants drowned as they tried to make their journey from Africa to Europe. Our correspondent Gavin Lee is monitoring developments from Brussels.
意大利海岸警卫队表示其仅在上周一周的时间里就营救了试图穿过地中海地区的非法移民。今天营救了900人。在最新发生的沉船事件中，有40多名移民在从非洲前往欧洲途中溺水死亡。下面是本台记者从布鲁塞尔发回的报道。
“Every day since Friday, around 1,000 people have been saved, the majority who set sail from the coast of Libya. This number, according to aid agencies, was unprecedented2. But the system isn't adequate, is a failing universally-acknowledged operation Triton with 6 ships, 4 planes and one helicopter, is 3 times smaller than the previous search and rescue operation Mare3 Nostrum4, which is ran by the Italian military. The Italian government asked for more financial help from the EU. Here in Brussels, the European Commissions responded, saying it has no silver bullet or any kind of panacea5. But it urged member states to invest more.”
自周五以来，每天都有近1000人被营救，其中多数人都是从利比亚海岸出发的。援救机构称其人数数量如此之大是前所未有的，但营救系统根本不足以营救这么多人，人们普遍认为营救行Operation?Triton已经失灵，只有6艘船，4架飞机和一架直升机，是搜救行动Mare?Nostrum三分之一还要小，后者是由意大利军方来进行的。意大利政府请求欧盟提供更多财政帮助，布鲁塞尔的欧洲委员会作出回应，称没有更好的营救方法了。但该机构敦促成员国提供更多援救资金。”
In a separate development, Italian police arrested a group of Muslim migrants from Ivory Coast, Mali and Senegal. They're accused of throwing Christians6 from Nigeria and Ghana overboard after a fight broke out over religion.
另一方面，意大利警方逮捕了一组来自象牙海岸，马里和塞内加尔的穆斯林移民。他们被指控在宗教冲突发生之后将来自尼日利亚和加纳的基督徒扔到了海里。
Fighting is underway for control of the western Iraqi city of Ramadi in Anbar Province. Tens of thousands of people are trying to flee. More from Paul Adams.
为争夺伊拉克西部安巴尔省拉马迪市控制权的战斗正在进行，已有成千上万人在试图逃离。下面是本台记者发回的详细报道。
“A small glimpse of the battle for the capital of Anbar Province, skirmishes around the northeastern edge of a city that's been in the sites of so-called Islamic State fighters for more than a year. 3 outlying villages fell to IS yesterday, triggering fears that Ramadi might soon be overrun. If that happened, it would represent the worst government defeat since the fall of Mosol last summer. Washington seems aware of the heightened sense of danger. US-led coalition7 aircrafts have launched air strikes today against the same villages. There are also?reports that government forces, possibly backed by newly-arrived Shiite militiamen, are fighting back.”
来关注一下安巴尔省的冲突，在城市东北部由伊斯兰国武装分子挑起的战斗已经断断续续持续了一年多。昨天，已经有3个外围村庄落入IS分子手中，恐怕Ramadi不久也将被攻占。如果真的被攻占，这表明是伊拉克政府军自去年夏天摩苏尔落入敌手后最糟糕的一次防守。美国方面似乎提高了对危险的关注度。由美国领导的空中部队今天对被攻占的村庄发动了空袭。同时有报道称政府军在予以回击，可能有刚刚赶到的什叶派民兵的支持。
As the campaign for Britain's general election gathers momentum8, 5 opposition9 party leaders have taken part in a second line of television debate hosted by the BBC. The Labor10 leader Edward Miliband said he would put working families first, while the leader of the UK Independence Party Nigel Farage said he would help small businesses. He also medicated for a referendum about leaving the European Union.
随着英国大选竞争势头日益激烈，5大反对党领导人参加了第二轮的电视辩论。工党领导人米利班说他将把工人家庭放到以地为，而其他领导人，例如英国独立党领导人Farage说他将帮助小企业家。他还为就脱离欧盟举行公投辨明理由。
“We can't be an independent state and be part of the European Union. My view is, we should be outside of that. My view is, we should govern ourselves. So for me, if you get isn't the position of influence in the next parliament, we would want the British people to have a full, free and fair referendum, so they can decide whether we have a trade deal with the EU or continue the membership of the European Union.”The leaders of the Scottish National Party, the Wales Party Plaid Cymru and the Green Party were also taking part.
我们无法同时作为独立的国家又作为欧盟的一部分，我的观点是，我们应该脱离欧盟。我的观点是，我们应该进行自治。所以对我来说，如果你不想在下届议会中占据影响位置，那么我们想让英国人民进行一次全面自由和公正的公投，这样他们就能决定我们是否要与欧盟签署贸易协议，或者继续保持欧盟成员国的身份。苏格兰民族党、威尔士党民族党和绿党领袖也都参加了辩论。
