The United Nations has been given figures for the numbers of people dying every month in the Syrian war and those fleeing the conflict. The UN high commission of refugees told a Security Council meeting that the crisis had gone on for much longer than anyone feared with unbearable humanitarian consequences. Nick Bryant reports.
联合国已经获得叙利亚战争期间每月的死亡和那些逃离冲突的人数。联合国难民事务高级专员在安理会会议上称,这场危机比任何人料想的都要长,且带来了严重的人道主义后果。 Nick Bryant报道。

Almost 1.8million refugees have now fled Syria according to the United Nations, two thirds of them since the beginning of the year. That’s an average of 6,000 people a day what UN officials describe as the most frightening rates since the Rwandan genocide almost 20 years ago. In a briefing to the UN Security Council, officials also spoke despairingly of the extremely high-rate of killings, approximately 5,000 people a month. It demonstrated, they said, a drastic deterioration of the war.
联合国称有近180万难民已经逃离叙利亚,今年年初以来的逃亡人数占全部的三分之二。平均每天6000人,联合国官员称这是自20年前卢旺达大屠杀以来最惊人的比例。在对联合国安理会做的简短报道中,官员们绝望地谈起频繁的杀戮事件,每月大概有5000人被杀。他们表示战争在急剧恶化。

Panama’s security minister Jose Raul Mulino has told the BBC that it would take days to complete the search of a North Korean ship suspected of smuggling missiles through the Panama Canal. He said the North Korean crew had sabotaged the cargo hoist in the week since the ship was held.
巴拿马安全部长Jose Raul Mulino告诉BBC,需要几天的时间来完成对一艘涉嫌通过巴拿马运河走私导弹的朝鲜船只。他说这批朝鲜船员已毁坏起重机。

“We have started to unload their vessel on Sunday around 250,000 bags of sugar which is a lot of sugar to unload and the crew members disconnect it and then destroy the mechanic cranes through their own board. So we are doing basically manually to take the sugar out in order to take the containers out of the ship to open them and with the specialized assistance determining what kind of weapon on earth were we found.”
“我们周日开始从船上卸下大约25万袋食糖,量很大,船员们先是拆掉这批货,然后毁掉了机械起重机。所以我们只好动手将糖弄出来,然后把集装箱从船上弄下来,然后在专门的帮助下看看里面到底装着什么武器。”

The vessel, the Chong Chon Gang was sailing from Cuba. The ship’s captain has reportedly tried to kill himself twice since it was impounded.
这艘名为“Chong Chon Gang”的船只从古巴驶出,据悉船长在船只被扣押后两度试图自杀。

A lawsuit has been filed against the United States government by a coalition of rights groups from across the political spectrum to try to halt its electronic surveillance programme. Rajini Vaidyanathan has more.
来自美国各政党的权利组织联盟起诉政府,试图制止其电子监视计划。Rajini Vaidyanathan报道。

This lawsuit argues that the collection of phone records is an illegal and unconstitutional programme of dragnet electronic surveillance. It demands that the U.S. government returns and destroys all telephone communication it has. Details of the government phone surveillance scheme were leaked by the former NSA contractor Edward Snowden last month. Officials confirmed they did monitor phone calls and said the schemes had helped to prevent terror attacks. The Justice Department and the NSA have yet to comment on this legal action.
控方称这种收集电话记录的安检网电子监督是非法的、违宪的,并要求美国政府归还并毁掉所有电话记录。有关政府电话监督项目的详情是由前国家安全局承包商爱德华•斯诺登上月泄露的,官方承认确实监督了电话,称该项目是为了阻止恐怖袭击。司法部和国家安全局尚未对这起诉讼发表看法。

The Russian authorities say Edward Snowden who remains on the run from the U.S. authorities has applied for temporary asylum in Russia. A Russian lawyer traveled to the airport outside Moscow where Mr. Snowden has been stranded for more than three weeks. The White House spokesman Jay Carney said they told the Russian government Mr. Snowden should be expelled to face trial in the US for leaking national secrets.
俄罗斯当局称,仍在逃避美国当局逮捕的爱德华•斯诺登目前申请在俄罗斯避难,斯诺登在莫斯科外的机场滞留了三个多星期,一名俄罗斯律师来到该机场。白宫发言人卡尔尼说,他们已经告诉俄罗斯政府应该将泄露国家机密的斯诺登驱逐出去,使之到美国接受审判。
