President Obama has called the Afghan President Hamid Karzai to express his shock and sadness at the killing of 16 Afghan civilians by a rogue American soldier, but he stressed the soldier didn't represent the US military or America's respect for the Afghan people. Quentin Sommerville reports from Kabul.
奥巴马总统致电阿富汗总统卡尔扎伊，对于16名阿富汗平民被一名美国流氓士兵杀死一事，表达自己的震惊和悲伤，但他强调，该士兵并不能代表美军或美国人对阿富汗人民的态度。Quentin Sommerville从喀布尔发回报道。

The gunman, a serving US soldier, left his base at 3:00am. He travelled to a nearby village and entered three Afghan homes. In one, he awoke all 11 family members, gathered them together and shot them dead. Then he burnt the bodies. In nearby homes, he killed five others. Locals are calling it a massacre. The soldier was careful and precise. Most were killed by a single shot to the head, including the children. The soldier, believed to be a staff sergeant, gave himself up and is now in US custody.
枪手是一名现役的美国士兵，他于凌晨3点离开了基地，来到附近一个村庄，进去三户阿富汗民居中。在其中一家，他叫醒了所有的11个家庭成员，将他们聚集到一起并开枪杀死，随后烧毁了尸体，他还杀死了这家5名邻居。当地人都称这是一场大屠杀。这名士兵做事谨严，大多人头部一枪即致命，包括儿童在内。据说这名士兵是位上士，他已经投案自首，现在关押在美国。

The international peace envoy for Syria, Kofi Annan, says he's handed over a set of concrete proposals aimed at defusing the crisis there during a second round of talks with President Bashar al-Assad. Jon Donnison reports from neighbouring Lebanon.
叙利亚的国际和平特使，联合国秘书长安南称，在与阿萨德总统的第二轮对话中，已经递交了一份旨在化解危机的切实方案。Jon Donnison在邻国黎巴嫩报道。

Emerging from a second round of talks in as many days, Kofi Annan told reporters his meetings with President Assad focused on three core objectives: an immediate end to the violence, access for aid and the start of a political dialogue with the opposition. But he gave no details of how any of those things might be achieved. Both sides have so far rejected the idea of peace talks. Mr Annan said the natural response was for the Syrian leader to embrace change and reform, but he said bringing an end to a year of violence would not be easy.
第二轮对话已经持续了许多天，安南告诉记者，他与阿萨德总统的会议集中在三个核心目标：尽快结束暴力、允许援助进入并与反对派开启政治对话。但至于这些目标如何实现，他没有透露有关细节。双方迄今拒绝和谈的想法，安南先生说，会谈必然的结果是让叙利亚领导接受变革和改革，但他表示结束这场持续一年的暴力活动不是件容易的事。

A suicide bomb attack on a church in the central Nigerian city of Jos has killed at least 10 people. It's the second such attack in Jos in two weeks. Here's Mark Lobel.
尼日利亚中部城市乔斯的一所教堂发生自杀式炸弹袭击，已造成至少10人死亡。这是两周内在乔斯发生的第二起类似袭击。Mark Lobel报道。

Eyewitnesses said the suicide bombers refused to open the boot of their car when challenged at church gates before detonating the explosives as worshippers approached them. It took place in St Finbar's Catholic Church in the affluent Rayfield suburb of Jos, a town in which thousands have died from religious and ethnic violence over the past decade. Security forces denied allegations of opening fire on onlookers who gathered after the blast. No groups admitted responsibility for the attack although suspicion will fall on the militant Islamist group Boko Haram, who were behind a similar church attack in Jos two weeks ago, in which three people were killed.
目击者称，炸弹被引爆前，礼拜者走上前来表示质疑，而自杀式袭击者拒绝打开汽车的行李箱。事故发生在乔斯郊区富有的雷菲尔德郊区一家天主教堂，自过去10年，该镇有数千人死于宗教和种族暴力。安全部队否认对旁观者开枪的指控。没有组织承认对此次袭击事件负责，但是人们怀疑这出激进的伊斯兰组织博科圣地之手，两周前乔斯的另一起类似的教堂袭击案就是该组织所为，其中3人被打死。

An Egyptian military court has acquitted an army doctor who was charged with carrying out forced virginity tests on women detained during protests last year. One of the women, Samira Ibrahim, who pressed charges against the doctor, said she'd been forced to undergo a test in March after being arrested in Tahrir Square. She said that witnesses she believed would testify for her had changed their story.
一家埃及军事法庭宣告一名军医无罪，这位医生曾被指控对去年抗议中被捕妇女强迫进行童真检验。其中一名妇女Samira Ibrahim指控了这名医生，她说去年三月自己在塔里尔广场被捕后，就被强行进行测验。她说有信任的目击者可以为自己作证，并改变这个判决。

The President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy, has said that unless European Union immigration controls are strengthened, he will suspend French participation in the EU's visa-free travel area, the Schengen zone. Addressing an election rally near Paris, he said that EU measures to combat illegal immigration must be strengthened.
法国总统萨科齐曾表示，除非强欧盟入境限制，不然法国将暂停实施欧盟的免签旅游区“申根区”政策。他在巴黎附近的一个竞选集会上说，欧盟必须加强打击非法移民的政策。

"Europe will not be able to integrate those who are struggling so hard to find a place in our society. It will not be able to finance its social protection anymore. This truth, my dear friends, needs to be heard because it is an exact description of the reality our fellow citizens and 450 million other Europeans are experiencing every day."
“欧洲无法整合那些努力想在我们社会上寻求一席之地的人，欧洲将无法为自己的社会保护提供资金。我亲爱的朋友们，你们要明白这个道理，因为我国公民的现实处境就是这样的，欧洲另外4.5亿人每天的处境也是这样的。”

Mr Sarkozy is campaigning ahead of French presidential elections next month. Immigration has been a focus of attention in France in recent weeks.
萨科齐先生为下个月的法国总统大选提前进行竞选运动。移民事务几周来一直是法国关注的焦点。

Tuareg rebels in northern Mali have seized a military base where hundreds of civilians had sought refuge from weeks of fighting. Soldiers reportedly fled the camp at Tessalit when the rebels launched an attack. The fate of the civilians is unclear. The BBC West Africa correspondent says it's a highly symbolic victory for the Tuareg-led fighters who've taken several towns since fighting began two months ago.
