Israeli officials have confirmed that they are prepared to extend the 72-hour ceasefire that was brokered1 by Egypt after a month of fighting in Gaza but there has been no official word from the militant2 Palestinian group Hamas. From Jerusalem here's Wyre Davies.
在加沙地区战斗进行一个月后，以色列官方表示准备将埃及调停的72小时停火延长，但巴勒斯坦武装组织哈马斯目前并未正式表态。怀尔·戴维斯在耶路撒冷报道。
The reported extension of the three-day ceasefire was confirmed to the BBC by senior Israeli officials but other unconfirmed reports from the region said Hamas had not yet agreed to continue the calm into the weekend. Israel has been stunned3 by widespread international criticism of its month-long bombing campaign in Gaza in which more than 1,800 Palestinians were killed. According to UN agencies 1,300 were civilians4 and of those more than 400 were children. But this evening in his first public comments since the start of the ceasefire Benjamin Netanyahu blamed Hamas for every one of the civilian5 casualties. The Israeli Prime Minister accused the Palestinian militant group of deliberately6 firing rockets from within built-up civilian areas. Mr. Netanyahu repeated his assertion that Israel never deliberately targets civilians and said the attacks were often aborted7 to avoid collateral8 damage.
以色列高级官员已经向BBC证实了传闻的延长三天停火的说法，但该地区其他未经证实的报道称哈马斯尚未同意将停火延长到周末。在以色列对加沙一个月的轰炸中，已有1800多名巴勒斯坦人丧生，国际上普遍的批评声音令以色列震惊。联合国机构称其中1300人是平民，400多名是儿童。但今天晚上在自停火以来首次公开讲话中，本杰明·本塔尼亚胡指责哈马斯要为每位平民的伤亡负责。以色列总理指责这个巴勒斯坦武装组织故意从平民聚集区开炮，他再次表示以色列从未故意袭击平民，称经常为了避免连带损失而取消进攻。

According to the Kremlin decree Russia will restrict imports of food and agricultural products from those countries which have imposed sanctions on Moscow.

The Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte has suspended the search in Ukraine for remains10 from the downed Malaysian airliner11 MH17 saying it was too dangerous because of continuing fighting between Ukrainian forces and pro-Russian rebels near the crash site. David Stern reports.
荷兰总理马克·鲁特暂停在乌克兰搜寻被击落马航MH17飞机遇难者遗体，称这是因为乌克兰部队和亲俄叛军仍在坠机地点附近战斗。戴维·斯特恩报道。
A statement by the head of the recovery mission in Ukraine said their work will resume as soon as conditions around the crash site became more stable. He said shooting could be heard regularly nearby. And on Wednesday small-caliber guns were fired close to the search team. Western and Ukrainian officials believe pro-Russian separatists shot down Flight MH17 last month possibly mistaking it for a Ukrainian military aircraft. The rebels deny responsibility.
在乌克兰的搜寻小组负责人在声明中称，一旦坠机点附近局势安定就会立即继续工作，他说附近经常能听到枪声。周三有人用小口径手枪向搜寻小组附近开枪。西方国家和乌克兰官方都认为上月亲俄分裂分子击落了马航MH17，可能将之误认为是乌克兰军用飞机。叛军否认对此负责。

Reports from Iraq say that more than 40 people have been killed in car bomb attacks in the capital Baghdad. The explosions hit markets in Shiite areas. Sebastian Usher13 reports.
来自伊拉克的报道称首都巴格达附近发生汽车爆炸袭击，导致40多人丧生。爆炸物是在什叶派地区市场引爆的，塞巴斯蒂安·亚瑟报道。
The attacks were timed to hit shopping areas in the evening as people were returning from work. This strategy has been used in the hundreds of car bombings that have struck Baghdad and elsewhere in Iraq in the past year and a half. The city is becoming the more tense in recent weeks since Sunni Jihadists threatened to attack it after seizing large areas in the north of the country. Despite these new fears there actually been a decrease in the car bombings.
袭击者是设定在晚上人们下班时袭击购物区的，过去一年半以来，巴格达和伊拉克其他地方的数百起汽车爆炸时间都用了这种策略。自从逊尼圣战分子占领该国北部大片地区后并威胁要袭击该地区以来，最近几周该市局势变得越发紧张。尽管人们还是很害怕，事实上汽车爆炸案的数量减少了。
Airdrops have been made to thousands of members of the Yazidi minority in northwestern Iraq who have taken refuge in the mountains from the threat of Sunni Jihadists. The airdrops reportedly by the Iraqi government have been of ammunition14 as well as food and water. But an aid worker in contact with the Yazidis says no one she's spoken to has yet seen a food airdrops. Access to the Yazidis is closed off for now as the Islamic State militants15 controlled the roads to the mountain. The Yazidis are neither Arabs nor Muslims; they worship a foreign angel which has let them being portrayed16 as devil-worshippers.
在伊拉克西北部，为逃避逊尼派圣战分子威胁而在山区避难的数千名亚齐德少数民族正接受空投援助。据悉这些空投是伊拉克政府提供的，其中包括食物、水和弹药。但与亚齐德人联系的一名援助人员称她见过的人没有哪个见到空投食物。由于“伊拉克伊斯兰国”控制了通往这座山的道路，通往亚齐德的途径已被切断。亚齐德人既不是阿拉伯人也不是穆斯林，他们崇拜一个外国天使，因此人们将他们看做是魔鬼崇拜者。
Scientists in Europe have expressed delightedly seeing the first images taken by an unmanned probe of a comet 550 million kilometers from earth. Boulders17 the size of houses and jets of dust have been captured in the photos, which they hope will help reveal more about the origins of comets, stars and planets.

The foundation which runs Wikipedia has refused a photographer's repeated requests to remove his most famous picture from the website because, it says, the copyright belongs to a monkey. The British photographer David Slater says he owes the self-portrait taken by a crested18 black macaque who snatched his camera in Indonesia in 2011; but the Wikipedia foundation argues that because the monkey pressed the shatter no royalties19 are due.
运营维基百科的基金拒绝一名摄影师多次要求从该网站移除其最著名图片的要求，摄影师称因为其版权属于一只猴子。英国摄影师戴维·斯雷特称这张黑冠猕猴自拍照的拥有者是他自己，这是这只猕猴2001年在印尼抢过他的相机拍下的，但维基百科基金辩解称猴子按下了快门，因此根本没有版权。
