The South African military says it will send troops to the Democratic Republic of Congo as part of special United Nations intervention17 force to fight rebels there. It comes just two weeks after the deaths of 13 soldiers in a controversial deployment18 in the Central African Republic. The South Africa media suggested troops were in the CAR in return for lucrative19 mining contract. Pretoria has denied this.
南非军队称将向刚果民主共和国派驻军队，这是联合国特别干预部队打击当地叛军行动的一部分。两周前，中非共和国颇有争议的一次军事部署导致13名士兵身亡。南非媒体称派遣军队到中非共和国是为了有利可图的矿业合约。比勒陀利亚否认这一说法。
The Nigerian militant20 group, Mend(the Movement for the Emancipation21 of the Niger Delta22), says it was behind an ambush23 which killed 15 police officers in an oil producing Niger Delta on Friday night. The group has been largely inactive since most of its members agree to amnesty in 2009. Will Ross reports from Lagos.
尼日利亚军事组织尼日尔河三角洲解放运动(Mend)称，周五晚上石油产地尼日尔三角洲发生的突袭事件是自己所为，袭击导致15名警官身亡。自从2009年大部分成员同意赦免后，该组织就不大活跃。威尔·罗斯在拉各斯报道。
An email statement from the militant group known as Mend, said it carried out the attack. It is, however, hard to verify if the email is from the same group responsible for disrupting oil output before an amnesty was agreed four years ago. Last week, an email purportedly24 from Mend said it was relaunching a campaign of violence in retaliation25 for the recent jailing of its leader, Henry Okah for terrorism. The Nigerian police denied there is any link between the ambush and the threat by the militants26. A police spokesman said the men who opened fire were former militants involved in a dispute over amnesty payments.
来自军事组织Mend的邮件声明自己实施了这场袭击，然而很难确定该邮件的发信者，是否就是4年前同意赦免前扰乱石油产出的那个组织。上周，一份自称是Mend组织发来的邮件称，由于其领袖欧卡最近以恐怖罪被捕入狱，将再次发动暴力袭击作为报复。尼日利亚军队否认这场突袭和武装分子的威胁有何关联。警方发言人称开枪者曾是武装分子，他们曾因赦免费用而发生争议。
