If you want to see a bipartisan compromise - a bill that can pass both houses of Congress and that I can sign - let your members of Congress know. Make a phone call. Send an email. Tweet. Keep the pressure on Washington, and we can get past this."

The secret testimony of the former US President Richard Nixon to a grand jury investigating the Watergate scandal is to be made public for the first time some 36 years after it was given. A federal judge ordered the transcript to be released after a historian requested access. The judge said the testimony's historical significance far outweighed arguments for continued secrecy. The Watergate scandal surrounded a break-in at Democratic Party headquarters, causing President Nixon to resign.

Tens of thousands of demonstrators filled Tahrir Square in the Egyptian capital Cairo throughout the day in what appears to have been the largest protest since the fall of President Mubarak. Muslim leaders had urged their followers to attend in a show of strength. Jon Leyne was in Tahrir Square.

Once again, huge numbers packed Tahrir Square. But this time, not the young secular liberals who led the revolution against Hosni Mubarak, these were Islamists - some supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood, others who support an even more radical interpretation of Islam, known as Salafists. The noise and the size of the crowd was impressive, but it's still not clear precisely how much support Islamists have in Egypt as a whole.

A combined naval force from Honduras and the United States says it's recovered 2.5 tonnes of cocaine from a submarine used by drug traffickers. Warren Bull reports.

洪都拉斯和美国联合海军力量表示，他们在贩毒分子使用的潜艇上缴获了2.5吨可卡因。Warren Bull报道。

A Honduran general, Rene Osorio, said the cocaine was packed into 100 bundles and that there could be another 2.5 tonnes of the drug left on board the submarine. The Honduran authorities say they think the submarine was coming from Colombia. Honduras is on a key route used by South American cartels trafficking illegal drugs to the United States. And Mexican cartels have increasingly transported drug consignments through Central American countries since the Mexican President Felipe Calderon launched a military campaign to defeat them over 4.5 years ago.

洪都拉斯将军Rene Osorio表示，这些可卡因被打包成100束，这意味着潜艇上有2.5吨毒品。洪都拉斯当局表示，他们认为这艘潜艇来自哥伦比亚。洪都拉斯是南美毒品组织向美国走私毒品的关键路径。自墨西哥总统卡尔德龙四年半以前发动了取缔毒品组织的军事行动之后，墨西哥毒品卡特尔越来越多地通过中美国家来运输毒品。

Thousands of people have taken to the streets in the rebel-held Libyan city of Benghazi to mourn the death of the rebel military commander General Abdul Fatah Younis.

But the gang's identity and motives have not been disclosed.
