The lockdown which has been in place over much of the downtown Ottawa parliamentary precinct is now beginning to lift. Uh, many of the buildings, uh, that surround the Parliament Building had been under lockdown all day long now, and that is now beginning to lift. Police are still on the streets, the streets are effectively empty of vehicles. There is no one out there apart from people who are now leaving their workplaces where they have been closed all day. Uh, the Parliament Buildings are still under lockdown. There's a very painstaking and difficult operation going on; they are trying to secure the building in its totality.
渥太华议会辖区附近市区大部分地方都实行了封锁,目前即将取消这一措施。议会大楼周围的很多大楼整个一天都在封锁着,现在马上要取消封锁了。警察仍在街头,街上已经没有车辆了。除了有人从一整天都在关闭的工作场所离开外,看不到一个人。议会大楼现在还在关闭中,目前的行动很辛苦又艰难,他们努力确保这座大楼完好无损。

On a daily bases, we are getting between 75 to 100 bodies a day that need to be recovered here in the Free, capital Freetown and in the rest of the country we are also having numbers increase anywhere between 20 and 50 a day.

Any little exposure puts our teams at risk.
每天我们在首都弗里敦要处理75到100具尸体,在该国其他地方每天也要处理20到50具之间。这当然是非常巨大的挑战,因为这项工作不能出错,一个错误都不能犯。我们必须严格遵守纪律,而纪律来自不断的重复实践,只要接触到病毒我们团队就会面临风险。

A US Federal jury has found four formal security guards from the company Blackwater guilty of shooting dead 14 unarmed Iraqis and wounding more than a dozen others in Baghdad in 2007. One formal guard was found guilty of first degree murder and three others of voluntary manslaughter as Juana Jolly reports from Washington.
美国联邦陪审团发现黑水公司4名前保安涉嫌2007年在巴格达开枪打死14名手无寸铁的伊拉克人,并伤及另外十几人。一名保安被认定犯下一级谋杀罪,另外三个犯下故意杀人罪。胡安娜•乔莉在华盛顿报道。
The seven-week trial focused on why four Blackwater's security guards opened fire and threw grenades into a crowded Baghdad street as they attempted to clear a path for a US State Department convoy. The US investigation found 14 people died in the incident with a further 80 injured. Lawyers for the defence said the guards were reacting to gunfire from insurgents in the Iraqi police. But prosecutors argued they had shown a grave indifference to the carnage their actions would cause and that some of them harboured low regard and deep hostility towards Iraqi civilians.
