The United Nations says the number of people killed since the start of the Syrian uprising in March 2011, has reached at least 60,000. This is higher than opposition1 activists2 estimated. Here's Mike Wooldridge.
联合国称自2011年叙利亚起义发生以来，已有至少6万人被杀。这个数字比反对派活动人士估计的要高，麦克·伍尔德里奇报道。
The monitoring group known as the Syrian Observatory3 for Human Rights has, in its own most recent calculations, put the death toll4 in Syria to around 45,000, but also said the real number was likely to be much higher. That's now the conclusion of the UN after what it says its five months of exhaustive analysis carried out by data specialists. This produced a list of 59,648 individuals killed between the start of the uprising in March 2011 and the end of November 2012. And as the UN points out, there's been no let-up in the conflict since then.
叙利亚人权观察组织在最近一次估算中称叙利亚的死亡人数大约为4.5万，但同时称实际数字可能更高。联合国数据专家经过5个月的详细分析称确实如此，从2011年3月起义开始到2012年11月，已有能列出人名的59648人死亡。联合国称冲突一直没有减弱迹象。

在叙利亚最近的冲突中，活动人士称政府对大马士革东部一处加油站发动空袭，杀死至少75人。John Donnison在贝鲁特报道。
Unverified video footage, apparently5 from outside the petrol station in the suburb of Mleiha in eastern Damascus, showed a scene of devastation6. The bloody7 bodies of the injured could be seen staggering out from among burning cars. A plume8 of thick black smoke rose into the sky. One witness said people had been queuing to fill up after the arrival of a fuel delivery when the air strike hit around lunchtime. The Mleiha district is not rebel-held, but is considered to have strong opposition support. Many people living in the capital had reportedly fled there from other areas which had been the focus of fighting, regarding Mleiha as being safe.

在尼泊尔首都加德满都，数百人游行要求追究针对女性犯罪案。Joanna Jolly报道。
For the past six days, hundreds of people have demonstrated outside the Prime Minister's house and other state buildings in Katmandu. The protests began in response to the case of a young Nepalese woman who said she was robbed by custom officials as she returned from working abroad. She was raped15 and robbed again by a policeman. The victim says she's now pregnant following the attack. Protesters are demanding that the Nepalese government properly investigate this case, and want better justice for women in general. They say they were inspired by similar protests in India, in response to the gang rape14 and murder of a student in Delhi.
