Belmokhtar’s death has been?reported many times in the past. Tom Batman has more.
国际公认的利比亚政府声称美国在本国的空袭杀死一名伊斯兰高级军事分子贝尔蒙塔。五角大楼证实， 他是周六空袭的目标。然而，五角大楼又称此次行动的结果仍在确认中。贝尔蒙塔的死亡在过去曾被报道过多次。下面是汤姆·巴特曼带来详细报道：
“The Algerian-born militant led a brigade which two years ago stormed the IMS gas port on the Libyan Algerian border. His men held 800 workers hostage in a siege which led to the deaths of 40 people. Belmokhtar gained notoriety as one of North Africa's most dangerous Islamist militants2. He lost an eye fighting in Algeria and known the nickname Mr. Marlboro for cigarettes smuggling3 at a price across the Sahara to fund tax in the region.”

A court in South Africa is expected to rule later today on whether the Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir should be handed over to the International Criminal Court. Mr al-Bashir who's in the country for an African Union summit has been charged by the ICC with war crimes and genocide. On Sunday, a judge barred him from living South Africa into an application for his arrest had been considered. Monsieur Mecikar reports.
南非一家法庭预计在今天晚些时候开庭，判定苏丹总统奥马尔·巴希尔是否应被传送到国际罪犯法庭。巴希尔在国家非洲联盟峰会上被国际商会控告战争罪和种族灭绝罪。周六，一位法官将他逐出南非境内并申请逮捕的意见正考虑采纳。下面是蒙苏里带来详细报道：
“Lawyers representing the government will argue in the high court that Mr Bashir should be allowed to go back home as freeman because Mr Bashir is in the country at the invitation of the African Union and not the South African government. The host nation of the African Union summit faces a diplomatic dilemma4 at this stage because if Mr Bashir leaves the country before the outcome of the court hearing, then someone has to be held in contempt of court. The question is who will that person be.”?
发表政府的律师们在高级法庭辩论应该允许巴希尔以自由人身份返回家乡，因为巴希尔是应非洲联盟而不是南非政府之邀而来的。非洲联盟峰会主办国此时面临进退两难的外交境地。因为如果巴希尔在法庭听证会结束之前离开国家，那么一些人将会轻视法庭。问题是谁将是那个人。

“Hopes for these talks were never especially high just days before they were due to start. It was reviewed the two sides were unlikely to even sit at the same table, then Huthi rebel groups delayed their arrival in Geneva by a day raising fears the talks could be canceled altogether. Today, they should get under way, the aim to negotiate a ceasefire, plan for the withdrawal7 of Huthi forces from territory they have seized and increase aid deliveries. Real peace remains8 a long way off.
希望和平谈话的呼声并不是在会议开始之前这几天呼声渐高的。根据现在情形，双方不可能坐在一张谈判桌上，Huthi叛乱组织迟到一天到达日内瓦增加了人们取消这次会谈的恐慌。今天，他们应该步入正轨，目标是协商停火，Huthi武装力量从占领区域撤军，增加救援。实现真正的和平还有很长的路要走。

Saudi Arabia's financial market is opening to some foreign investors9 who from Monday will be able to buy sharing companies traded on the country's stock exchange. Our economist10 correspondent Andrew Walker reports.
沙特阿拉伯自周一起向那些能够在本国交易市场购买股份公司的外国投资者开放金融市场。下面是本国经济记者安德鲁·瓦克发回的报道;
“Saudi Arabia is one of the largest markets to remain until now largely off the limits to international investors. It’s now taking an important, they have not completed, step to open up. The right to buy shares would be limited to investors approved by the regulator and be limited to the amount of incoming investment including a cap of 49% total foreign ownership of any company. It’s not expected that there would be a sudden surge funds going into the market. But Saudi Arabia's oil wealth means it’s a large enough economy to ensure that some investors will find opportunities.”
沙特阿拉伯是如今向外国投资者开放市场的最大的市场之一。他们向对外开放迈出了尚未完成的关键的一步。购买的股票需符合调整标准，最高投入资本包括百分之四十九的外国任何一家公司的持有权。国家并不预期在短时间内涌入大量资金。三式沙特的丰富的石油资源意味着国内有足够大的经济市场保证投资商找到投资机会。

In Britain, the Queen will attend a ceremony later today to mark the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta, the document that introduced some of the key rights enjoyed in modern democracies. Here's our royal correspondent Peter Hunt.
英国女王在今天晚些时候将参加《大宪章》800周年纪念日庆祝仪式。《大宪章》为现代民主介绍了一些重要的权利。下面是本台驻皇家记者皮特·怀特发回的报道：
“In the Runnymede meadow on the banks of the Thames, the Queen will mark a pivotal moment in history. The moment when it will establish that her ancestors were not above the law, the death of despotism. Here's one story has put it. Magna Carta, Latin for Great Charter, plays limits on taxation12, outlined basic rights including to a fair trial and president Obama has spoken of it as the inspiration for Americans founding Fathers.” Peter Hunt reporting there. Magnet Carter is also seen as an inspiration for the universal declaration of human rights.
女王将在泰晤士河畔的兰尼米德草坪上见证历史上最重要时刻。该宪章决定了她的祖先并不是凌驾于法律之上，象征专制主义的死亡。有一个故事这样讲到，《大宪章》，拉丁名称是《第一大宪章》，它限制税收，概括了包括公正裁决在内的基本权力。美国总统奥巴马称它激发了美国开国元勋的灵感。以上是皮特·怀特报道。《大宪章》同时被视为国际上普遍呼吁的人权的灵感来源。
