President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria says the Islamist group Boko Haram now has supporters and members within the government. More than 80 people have been killed in the last few weeks in attacks apparently carried out by the Islamist group.

For the first time, he conceded there were members and supporters of Boko Haram - which is fighting for Sharia law across Nigeria - in his government, the military, police and security services. The president added that the battle with militant Islamists is more complicated than the civil war 46 years ago when more than a million people died.

Arab League foreign ministers meeting in Cairo say the league's observer mission to Syria will continue its work despite criticism that it has failed to halt the continued killing of Syrian civilians by the government. Here's our correspondent in Cairo Jon Leyne.
阿拉伯联盟外长会议在开罗称，尽管有人批评该观察团未能阻止政府杀害叙利亚平民，阿盟赴叙利亚观察团将继续开展工作。下面是我们驻开罗记者Jon Leyne报道。

The Arab ministers heard a detailed report from the head of the monitoring mission in Syria, looking at maps, diagrams and photos of what the observers have seen. The ministers examined criticism that the mission has done little to end the violence against civilians in Syria. But so far the decision has been to continue. The Arab League secretary general insisted that the number of people killed had been reduced by the presence of observers, though the statement from the league afterwards called on the Syrian government to do more to protect civilians.
阿拉伯外长们听取了在叙利亚监测任务的负责人的详细报告，观看了观察员所见的地图、图表和照片。部长们审查了有关使团无作为未能终结叙利亚对平民施暴的批评，但目前还未做出最终决定。阿拉伯国家联盟秘书长坚持认为，观察员的存在帮助减少了被杀民众的数量，尽管阿盟后来发表声明，要求叙利亚政府加强对平民的保护。

This is the beginning of what will be a long process to restore services in the region around Pibor after fighters of the Lou Nuer rampaged through the town. The head of MSF in South Sudan told the BBC that his staff at first had to clean and re-equip its clinic and compound which had been ransacked in the violence. He said the local Murle population was drifting back to the town from which they had fled. MSF has now contacted all but 47 of its staff who'd run into the bush to escape the conflict.
努埃尔武装分子摧毁该镇后，恢复皮博尔镇周围的服务机构是个漫长的过程，而治疗工作只是这个过程的开始。医疗无国界组织驻南苏丹负责人告诉BBC，工作人员必须首先清理在暴力活动中被毁的诊所和院落，并配备相应的设备。他说，当地逃离的穆尔勒人正慢慢返回。除了47名跑入灌木逃避冲突的员工外，医疗无国界组织现已联系上所有人员。
