Stock markets have surged in the Far East amid signs that a deal to prevent Greece defaulting on its debt may be close at hand. The Greek government has outlined further austerity measures to appease1 its creditors2. The German Chancellor3 Angela Merkel speaking after an emergency summit in Brussels said this constituted progress but work was needed to steady the proposals. Chris Moris is in Brussels.
远东股市大涨，诸多迹象表明可能很快达成有关阻止希腊违约的协议。希腊政府已提出进一步的紧缩措施来安抚其借贷者。德国总理安吉拉·默克尔在布鲁塞尔紧急峰会后讲话称已经取得进步，但还需要将这些提议确定下来。克里斯·莫里斯报道。
"Greece has to make a big debt repayment4 to the IMF in a week's time, on the same day that its current EU bailout expires. So time is short. And as he left the summit, the Greek Prime Minister Alexi Tsipras said the ball is now in the court of the European leaders. But after bruising5 five months negotiations6, there's still plenty of skepticism about Greece around the Euro Zone. Earlier, finance ministers prompted by Germany's Wolfgang Schebler argued about whether capital control should be introduced as significant amounts of money continue to be withdrawn7 from Greek banks."
“希腊必须在一周内向国际货币基金组织偿还大笔贷款，就在同一天其欧盟纾困计划也到期。所以时间很紧迫，希腊总理阿列克谢·蒂西普拉斯在离开峰会时称现在要由欧洲领导人来做决定了。但在经过五个月的协商后，人们仍对希腊在欧元区的地位表示怀疑。早些时候，在德国人沃尔夫冈的提示下，财长们开始辩论是否实施资本控制，因为仍有相当大笔的资金被从希腊银行提取。”
The BBC has learned the police in London have arrested Rwanda's intelligent chief who is wanted for alleged8 war crimes. General Karenzi Karake, who also held the post in the mid-90s, is accused of ordering the massacres9 after the Rwandan genocide. Here's Mark Ervin.
BBC了解到伦敦警方逮捕了因战争罪被通缉的卢旺达情报负责人，20世纪90年代中期也担任该职位的卡伦齐·卡拉克将军被控在卢旺达种族灭绝后后下令大屠杀。马克·欧文报道。
"The general was arrested on Saturday at Heathrow Airport. The Foreign Office has confirmed to the BBC that the police were acting10 on a European arrest warrant issued in Spain. An investigative judge is looking into a variety of alleged defences following the Rwandan genocide in the early 1990s. Charges against the general go back as far as 2008 when a Spanish judge first issued a warrant for his arrest."
“这位将军是周六在希思罗机场被捕的，外交部向BBC证实警方是根据西班牙发布的欧洲逮捕令而行动的。一位调查法官正在调查20世纪90年代早期卢旺达种族灭绝后的系列罪行，针对这名将军的指控可追溯到2008年，当时一名西班牙法官首次对他发布通缉令。”
Military officials in Washington say an air strike has killed a militant11 connected to an attack on a US diplomatic compound in Libya three years ago. Four Americans, including the US ambassadors, Christopher Stevens, were killed in the Benghazi attack. Babara Plett Usher12 reports from Washington.
华盛顿军方官员称一场空袭击毙了与三年前美国使馆遇袭有关的一名武装分子，包括美国大使克里斯多夫·史蒂文斯在内的四名美国人在班加西袭击中遇难。芭芭拉·皮莱特·亚瑟在华盛顿报道。
"The Pentagon said the militant, Ali Ani al-Harzi, was a person of interest in the attack against US personnel in Benghazi, Libya three years ago. It called him 'an organizational intermediary who operate closely with the extremists linked to the so-called Islamic State throughout North Africa and Middle East'. And it said his death degrades the IS's ability to integraded African Jihadis into its Mid-East fight. The US's deeply concerned about the spread of the Islamic State affiliates13, especially in Libya. But so far it has restricted its military campaign to the group's heartland in Syria and Iraq."
“五角大楼称这名名为Ali Ani al-Harzi的武装分子是三年前利比亚班加西美国使馆人员遇袭案的嫌疑人物，并称此人‘与整个北非和中东地区IS组织有密切有关的有组织中介人物’。五角大楼称此人之死使得IS招募非洲圣战分子加入其中东战斗的能力被削弱。美国非常担心IS分支组织的蔓延，尤其是在利比亚。但到目前为止美国将其军事行动限制在该组织在叙利亚和伊拉克的中心地带。”
Kurdish forces in Northern Syria say they've advanced deep into Islamic State territory, capturing a military base in Raqqa Province. The compound, which IS seized last year, is just 50 kilometers north of the militants14' de facto capital Raqqa city. The Kurdish forces were backed up by US air strikes and other Syrian rebel groups.
叙利亚北部的库尔德武装称已挺进IS所控制地区的深处，并夺取拉卡省的一个军事基地。这个基地是IS去年占领的，距离该武装组织实际意义上的首都拉卡市只有50公里。库尔德武装有美国空袭和叙利亚其他叛军组织作为支持。

Whether that is true, there was no denying the horror. Japanese soldiers were ordered to fight to the last bullet, Okinawan civilians17 to commit suicide rather than surrender. At the end of it all in June 23rd, 100,000 Japanese soldiers died, another hundred thousand civilians."

The international police organization, INTERPOL, said the children aged19 from five to 16 came from Burkina Faso, Guinea, Mali as well as from Northern Ivory Coast.
