Algeria says its special forces have stormed a large gas plant in the Sahara ending a crisis which began when Islamist militants seized it and took hundreds of hostages on Wednesday. The Algerian army says its forces killed 11 Islamist militants who remained at the plant. It says the kidnappers have begun killing seven foreign hostages they were still holding and had mined the facility. Algeria now says that 23 hostages and 32 militants have been killed overall. The American Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said those responsible for all such attacks would be pursued.
阿尔及利亚称其特别部队向撒哈拉沙漠一大气田发动袭击，结束了周三以来的这场危机，当时伊斯兰武装分子夺取该地并挟持了数百名人质。阿尔及利亚军队称杀死了留守在气田的11名伊斯兰武装分子，称绑架车杀死了11名外国人质，还在气田埋了地雷。阿尔及利亚称现在已有23名人质和32名武装分子死亡。美国国防部长帕内特称将追究袭击者责任。

与会马里讨论当前危机的西非领导人呼吁更多国际援助，来进行所谓针对恐怖主义的战争。会址所在国科特迪瓦的总统称，在打击武装分子的斗争中，需要有更多国家与法国和非洲一道团结一致。安德鲁•哈丁在马里中部塞古报道。

Some 2,000 French troops are now on the ground. There’re armed cars and trucks racing along the dusty roads close to the huge Niger River. The aim for now it seems is to hold a line across the narrow center of Mali to wait for a coalition of West African troops to arrive. Then and only then will they try to retake northern Mali from the Islamists who still control a vast arid region bigger than France itself.
目前马里已有2000多名法国士兵，他们的装甲车和卡车停放在尼日尔河附近尘土飞扬的道路旁。这支部队眼下看来是想在马里中部的狭窄地区驻足片刻，等待西非军队联盟赶来。只有到了那个时候他们才会试图从伊斯兰手中夺回马里北部，目前伊斯兰控制的浩瀚干旱地区面积比法国还大。
