The Ukrainian government and pro-Russian rebels have agreed a ceasefire designed to end months of fighting in the east of the country. The Ukrainian leader Petro Poroshenko said it was important that a political dialogue now took place. From Moscow here's Steve Rosenberg.
乌克兰政府和亲俄叛军一致同意停火，旨在结束乌克兰东部为期数月的冲突。乌克兰领导人波罗申科表示，双方现在进行了政治对话，这非常重要。莫斯科，Steve Rosenberg报道。
The talks in the Belarusian capital Minsk Kiev and the pro-Moscow militants2 agreed a ceasefire. There was talk of a wide deal too. President Poroshenko said there would be an exchange of prisoners. Kiev, he said, had agreed to give more powers to the east. Russia is a key player in all of these, and the Kremlin welcomed the deal. But one key issue wasn't discussed - the future status of Ukraine's eastern regions. President Poroshenko maintains that territorial3 integrity of his country is not in doubt, but the leader of self-proclaimed Luhansk People's Republic said the ceasefire did not mean a change in the separatists' long-term goal to secede4 from Kiev.
在白俄罗斯首都明斯克，基辅和亲莫斯科激进分子同意停火。双方也针对更广泛的协议进行了对话。总统波罗申科表示，其中将包括交换囚犯。他表示，基辅同意赋予东部更多权力。俄罗斯在整个事件中发挥着关键作用，克里姆林宫对该协议表示欢迎。但是一个关键问题没有进行讨论——乌克兰东部地区未来的身份。波罗申科坚持乌克兰的领土完整不可置疑，但是自己宣布成立的卢甘斯克人民共和国领导人表示，该停火协议并不意味着分裂分子从基辅分裂出来的长期目标有任何改变。
Both Russia and Western countries have welcomed the ceasefire, but speaking at a Nato summit in Wales, President Obama said that based on past experience he remained sceptical that Moscow and the rebels would follow through on the agreement. The United States and the European Union say they will go ahead with the imposition of further sanctions against Russia. They also agreed to set up a rapid reaction force.
俄罗斯和西方国家都对停火协议表示欢迎，但是在威尔士北约峰会上发表讲话时，奥巴马总统表示，根据过去的经验，他仍然怀疑莫斯科和叛军是否会遵守协议。美国和欧盟表示，他们将会继续对俄罗斯实施进一步的制裁。他们还同意成立快速反应部队。
The United States has confirmed that a missile strike in Somalia has killed the leader of the Islamist militant1 group al-Shabab, Ahmed Abdi Godane. The attack, which involved US special forces, took place in southern Somalia on Monday. Barbara Plett Usher5 reports from Washington.
美国证实在索马里实施的导弹袭击击毙了伊斯兰青年党头目艾哈迈德·戈丹(Ahmed Abdi Godane)。由美国特种部队参加的袭击于周一在索马里南部进行。Barbara Plett Usher在华盛顿报道。
The Pentagon called the death of Ahmed Abdi Godane a major symbolic6 and operational loss to al-Shabab. Somalia's government expelled the Islamist militants from Mogadishu in 2011 with the help of African troops and Western intelligence. But under Mr Godane's leadership al-Shabab continued to mount frequent attacks in the capital. He also shifted the group's focus from a nationalist agenda to international jihad, pledging allegiance to al-Qaeda and masterminding the attack on a Kenyan shopping mall last year.
五角大楼称艾哈迈德·戈丹被击毙对青年党来说是重大的象征性的和操作性的损失。2011年，在非洲部队和西方情报机构的帮助下，索马里政府将伊斯兰激进分子驱逐出摩加迪沙。但是在戈丹的领导下，青年党继续对首都发动频繁的袭击。他还将该组织的焦点从国民主义日程转为国际圣战运动，宣誓忠诚于基地组织，策划了去年肯尼亚商场的袭击。
The World Health Organisation7 says blood from people who have recovered from the Ebola virus should be used to treat other patients. The idea is that antibodies in the blood can help people fight off the infection. It was one of several measures agreed at a meeting of experts in Geneva. Tulip Mazumdar reports.
世界卫生组织表示，感染埃博拉病毒后康复的人的血液应该用于治疗其他病人。该设想认为血液中的抗体可以帮助人们抵抗病毒感染。这是日内瓦专家会议上赞同的措施之一。Tulip Mazumdar报道。
Around 150 experts have spent the past two days looking at how they can fast track promising8 experimental drugs to make them available in West Africa as soon as possible. They have agreed that the quickest and safest fix for now is using so-called convalescent plasma9 therapy, taking blood from people who have recovered from the virus. The idea is that the antibodies in the blood can help those still fighting it. The method has been used on a very small scale in past outbreaks, and some people have recovered, but there still no clinical evidence of its effectiveness.
过去两天，大约150名专家努力思考如何快速寻找有希望的实验性药物，尽快用于西非。他们一致同意了目前为止最迅速，最安全的方法，所谓的康复期血液净化疗法，从感染该病毒后愈合的人体中提取血液。该想法认为，血液中的抗体可以帮助感染者抵抗病毒。在过去的疫情爆发中，这种方法曾用于非常小的范围，一些人康复，但是没有临床证据证明其有效性。
The United States says it has no plans for military cooperation with Iran to fight Islamic State militants operating in Iraq and Syria. The US State Department's statement came after Iranian sources told BBC that the country's supreme10 leader had authorised one of the top commanders of the Revolutionary Guard to help coordinate11 operations against the Islamic State in northern Iraq with the US, Iraq and Kurdish forces.

A private aircraft from United States has crashed into the Caribbean Sea after the pilot repeatedly failed to respond to air traffic controllers. The small aircraft ignored its intended flight path from New York to Florida. Tom Esslemont in Washington has more details.
飞行员多次未能对航空管制员做出回应后，来自美国的一架私人飞机坠入加勒比海。这架小型飞机忽略了从纽约飞往佛罗里达的航线。Tom Esslemont在华盛顿报道更详细内容。
US air defence officials said two fighter jets have tracked the plane after the pilot stopped responding to the radio. The jets broke off when the plane, a single-engine private aircraft, entered Cuban airspace. At the time Aerospace12 Defence Command said its crew had not been able to assess whether the pilot was conscious or not. It said the windows to the cockpit appeared to have been frosted or foggy with condensation13. In the end after a journey of more than 2,000km the plane came down just off the coast of Jamaica.
美国空防官员表示，飞行员停止对无线电波做出反应之后，两架战斗机曾追踪该飞机。当这架单引擎私人飞机进入古巴领空后，两架战斗机被摆脱。当时航天防卫指挥部表示，其工作人员已经难以评估飞行员是否清醒。他们表示，驾驶舱的窗户已凝结了一层雾水。最终，超过2,000千米的旅程后，飞机在牙买加海岸坠毁。
