Mark Lowen has this report.
白宫对乌克兰东部的亲俄武装分子在冲突中使用先进武器表示担忧，早些时候的周四，一枚俄罗斯制造的防空导弹在斯拉维扬斯克击落了一架乌克兰军用直升机，并导致12名士兵丧生。马克·罗文报道。
“This is a significant loss of live for the Ukrainian military and a major blow as Kiev pursues what it calls its anti-terror operation here. The helicopter was shot down by rebel fighters as it transported troops to a military base around the town of Slaviansk. There was also an admission today by one of the leaders of the South style Donetsk People's Republic, Ukraine's breakaway eastern region that some of his fighters who died in a battle at Donetsk airport earlier in the week were Russian, fueling accusations3 that Moscow is playing a larger part in the conflict than it says.”
“当前基辅在这里进行所谓的反恐行动，这对乌克兰军队来说是巨大的生命损失和剧烈打击。这架直升机当时正运部队到斯拉维扬斯克附近的一个军事基地，然后被叛军武装分子击落。今天，乌克兰东部分离地区顿涅茨克人民共和国领导人承认，本周早些时候在顿涅茨克机场丧生的部分武装人员是俄罗斯人，这就让人们开始指责莫斯科，称莫斯科在这场冲突中发挥的作用比其声称的要大。”
Turkey's highest court has ruled that restrictions4 imposed on access to YouTube be lifted. A judgment5 that is likely to be seen as a setback6 for the Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. He advocated banning the video sharing website. James Reynolds is in Istanbul.

The African Union has begun a major campaign to end child marriage in Africa. Experts say underage marriage cut short the childhood of all the 17 million girls or one in three across the continent. Here's Richard Hamilton.
非盟开始一场在非洲终结童婚的大规模运动，专家称童婚使得整个非洲1700万女孩的童年缩短。理查德·汉密尔顿报道。
“Activists say child marriage jeopardizes15 girls' rights, such as access to education, because new brides are forced to drop out of school to their children and provide household labour. There are significant health risks if very young girls get pregnant. Young brides also often live as virtual prisoners with few social connections hardly any power in their new homes and frequently suffer domestic violence. The country with the highest percentage of underage marriage is Niger.”
“活动家称童婚侵犯了女孩的权利，比如获得受教育权利，因为新娘被迫辍学来给家里充当劳力。很年幼的女孩怀孕，其风险非常大。年轻的新娘们还经常被迫过着囚犯一样的生活，几乎没有什么社会交往，在家庭也没有什么权力，还要经常遭受家暴。非洲通婚率最高的国家是尼日尔。”
Extracts from sensitive communications between British and US leaders in the runup of the Iraq War will be made public in Britain but the full versions will remain secret. The Chilcot Inquiry16 into the origins of the conflict heard from its last witness more than 3 years ago, but its conclusions have been delayed as Norman Smith reports.
英美国家领导人在伊拉克战争前夕的敏感通讯的内容摘录将在英国公布，但完整的版本仍保密。调查这场冲突起源的齐尔考特调查小组3年多年从最后一名目击者得到消息，但其结论要推迟公布了。诺曼·史密斯报道。
“Although a deal is not being struck between the Chilcot Inquiry and the government, it’s likely to prove hugely controversial. Under the deal, the full Blair letters will not be published, instead only what described as list of the content will be released. Direct quotations17 from the letters will also be kept to a minimum. President Bush's responses will not be included and still no timetable for publication.”
“尽管齐尔考特调查小组和政府尚未达成协议，但情况看来颇具争议。根据该协议，布莱尔的整个信件不会发表，而会发表其内容的摘要，同时也会尽可能少地直接引用信件的原文，同时也不包括布什总统的回信，而且也没有给出发表的时间表。”
