The Turkish parliament has overwhelmingly approved a motion authorizing possible Turkish military operations against militants in Iraq and Syria. Mark Lowenreports.

土耳其议会以绝对多数通过一项动议，该动议将授权土耳其军队对伊拉克和叙利亚的武装分子采取可能的军事行动。马克·罗文报道。

The debate raged, but the result was never really in doubt. With the government's majority in parliament, it was a clear victory, 298 MPs voting in favour, 98 against. And so parliament has given approval for Turkey's armed forces to be sent into Iraq and Syria, and for foreign troops to use Turkish territory for the same purpose. That could allow the US to launch airstrikes from its large base at Incirlik in southern Turkey. But it's unlikely that Turkish soldiers will suddenly go in guns' blazing. A long border with both Iraq and Syria makes Turkey vulnerable to retaliation from Islamic State militants.

这次辩论很激烈，但结果是毫无疑问的。政府的多数派在议会中，显然这是一场胜利，298票支持，98票反对。因此议会允许派遣土耳其武装部队到伊拉克和叙利亚，并允许外国部队为此使用土耳其领土，这样就允许美国从土耳其南部英基里克的大基地发动空袭。但是土耳其士兵不大可能突然开火，由于土耳其与伊拉克和叙利亚的边境线较长，因此土耳其容易受到伊斯兰恐怖组织的报复。

The British Prime Minister David Cameron has arrived in Cyprus to visit British forces launching airstrikes against the Islamic State militants in Iraq. Mr. Cameron is making an unannounced visit to the British base in Akrotiri where six Tornados (旋风式战斗机) were already involved in the mission which began last weekend. He thanked the British troops and announced that a further two Tornados will be sent out.

英国首相戴维·卡梅隆抵达塞浦路斯，看望向伊拉克“伊斯兰国”武装分子发动空袭的英国部队。卡梅隆意外访问阿克罗蒂里的英国基地，那里的6架旋风式战斗机已经在上周末开始了这次行动。他感谢英国部队，并宣布将派出另外两架旋风式战斗机。

The International Committee of the Red Cross says one of its workers has been killed in the centre of the eastern Ukrainian city of Donetsk, from where James Kumarasamy sent this report.

国际红十字会称其工作人员在乌克兰城市顿涅茨克中部被杀， James Kumarasamy发回报道。

According to the Red Cross the building housing their office in Donetsk caught fire after a shell hit the area during the evening. They have confirmed that one of their workers, a Swiss national, died from injuries he sustained. According to eyewitnesses at least two shells struck the residential neighbourhood, but it's not clear who fired them. It's the first time that missiles have fallen in central Donetsk since a ceasefire was agreed last month by the pro-Russian rebels running this region and the Ukrainian government. That agreement has been coming into ever greater doubt in recent days as fighting has continued to rage around Donetsk Airport.

红十字会称夜间有炮弹袭击该地区，他们在顿涅茨克的办公室大楼着了火，他们已证实一名瑞士籍的工作人员已经因受伤死亡。目击者称至少两个炮弹袭击了居民区，但尚不清楚谁发动的袭击。这是自上月控制该地区的亲俄叛军同意停火以来顿涅茨克地区第一次遭遇导弹袭击，最近几天人们对该协议越发怀疑，因为顿涅茨克机场周围的战斗越发激烈。

The United States is to partially lift its arms embargo on its former foe Vietnam which has been in place for nearly four decades. Catherine Davis has the details.

美国将部分取消对前敌国越南已经实施近40年的武器禁运，Catherine Davis发回报道。

The State Department said it was adjusting its policy to allow the transfer of defence equipment for the purposes of maritime security only. Any specific weapon sales will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. The arms embargo has been in place since the end of the Vietnam War in 1975. But in the years since, relations have changed with diplomatic ties restored and growing bilateral trade. These days Vietnam is among several nations locked in a territorial dispute with Beijing over the South China Sea. However Washington denies the policy change is anti-China.

国务院称正在调整其政策，只允许用于海军安全的防御装备的运输，任何专门的武器销售都将逐个评估。自1975年越南战争结束后，美国就实施了武器禁运。但自那以来，随着外交关系的恢复和双边贸易的增长，两国关系有了改变。最近越南等国和北京在南中国海有领土争端，但华盛顿否认该政策改变是针对中国。
