Rebels in Mali are reported to have taken control of the biggest military camp in the north of the country, a garrison near Gao, after fighting with government forces. The regional group Ecowas has put 2,000 troops on standby. Thomas Fessy is following events from neighbouring Senegal.
据报道，马里叛军与政府军作战之后，控制该国北部加奥附近的最大的军营。地区组织西非国家共同经济体的2000名已经随时候命。Thomas Fessy在邻国塞内加尔跟踪报道。

I've spoken to a rebel commander on the ground who claims that his men have now taken over that big military camp, that soldiers were on the move fleeing towards Bamako. We have yet to understand how many casualties there are. The army was able to put up strong resistance, but not enough apparently because tonight the outcome is that the Tuareg-led rebels seemed to have taken over this military camp, which is a major trophy for them in their fight for an independent north.
我刚与一名叛军指挥官进行现场交流，他称手下已经夺取了那个大军营，政府军正逃往巴马科。我们尚未了解有多少人员伤亡。政府军原本能大力抵抗的，但显然力度不够，因为今晚的结果是，图阿雷格人为首的叛军似乎已经占领了该兵营，对于这些为争取北部独立而战斗的叛军来说是一个重大的胜利。

The Muslim Brotherhood has decided to field a candidate in Egypt's presidential election, reversing an earlier pledge that it could not contest the poll. The group announced at a press conference that its deputy leader Khairat al-Shater would stand in the election in May. From Cairo, Yolande Knell reports.
穆斯林兄弟组织决定派出一名候选人参加埃及的总统大选，颠覆了此前该党宣誓称不会参加竞选的承诺。在新闻发布会上，该组织宣称其副职领导人Khairat al-Shater将参加5月的选举。来自开罗，Yolande Knell报道。

Khairat al-Shater, a wealthy businessman, has long been a senior member of the Islamist group. He spent 12 years in prison because of his connection with the Brotherhood, which was previously banned. He was only released after last year's uprising. The Muslim Brotherhood said it had reversed its decision not to contest the presidency to ensure the success of Egypt's revolution and the transfer from military to civilian rule. The Brotherhood already dominates Egypt's newly elected parliament and the panel set up to draft the new constitution.
富商Khairat al-Shater长期以来一直是伊斯兰组织的高级成员，由于与曾经被禁的兄弟组织有染，他被囚禁12年，去年起义后方获释。穆斯林兄弟会称，它改变之前不参与总统选举的决定，是为了维护埃及革命的成果，并确保该国由军事统治过渡到民治。在即将将草拟新宪法的埃及新当选议会中，兄弟组织占支配地位。

The transitional government in Libya said nearly 150 people have been killed and hundreds more injured over the past week in fighting between rival ethnic groups near the southern town of Sabha. It said there was a shortage of medical supplies, but that a truce had been reached and the area was now calm.
利比亚过渡政府表示，在过去一周内，各个敌对的部族在南部Sabha镇作战，至少150人被杀，数百人受伤。过渡政府称敌对区医疗用品短缺，但双方已经达成停火协议，目前该地区是平静的。

Polls open in parliamentary elections in Burma in a few hours' time in a vote seen as a test of the military-dominated government's commitment to democratic reform. The opposition leader and Nobel peace prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi is standing for a seat for the first time. Fergal Keane is in Rangoon.
几小时后缅甸议会选举即将开始投票，这被视为军政府致力民主改革的诚意。反对派领导人和诺贝尔和平奖获得者昂山素季首次获得一个席位。Fergal Keane在仰光报道。

It's the support of key constituencies like the Buddhist clergy and the rural masses that are central to Aung San Suu Kyi's strategy of building a movement that can pressure the government into holding a general election. For its part, the military-backed government hopes reform will end sanctions, boost international investment and allow it to develop popular support. This by-election won't change the government of Burma for now, but in the long run it could end up changing history.
昂山素季得到了诸如佛教牧师和农村群众等关键选民的支持，这对她发起一项足以对政府施压并进行大选的运动来说至关重要。就其本身而言，军政府希望通过改革能结束制裁，促进国际投资，并进一步培养民心。这一选举将不会改变现在的缅甸政府，但是从长远来看，它最终可能改变历史。

That was Fergal Keane in Rangoon.
