AP News:意大利洪水引发山体滑坡

2016-11-30来源:和谐英语

This is AP News Minute.

Celebration turned to somber reflection and church services on Sunday, as Cuban-Americans in Miami largely stayed off the streets. Thousands celebrated the day before to mark the death of Fidel Castro.

Turkey's state-run news agency says the Islamic State Group used chemical weapons against the Turkish-backed Syrian opposition fighters in northern Syria, wounding 22 people. The report cited a statement by the Chief of General Staff's office.

Newly-released drone footage shows the extent of devastation caused by severe flooding and landslides in northwestern Italy. Hundreds of people have been displaced after days of torrential rainfall.

Cuban worshipers prayed for Fidel Castro on Sunday, a nod to a leader who rejected the church and all things Catholic after he took power in a revolution in 1959. Castro repressed religion, seeing the church as a rival in a heavily Catholic country.
