The US Defense Secretary Ash Carter says American special forces will be deployed to Iraq to help fight Islamic State militants in both Iraq and Syria. Mr. Carter said the troops would be able to carry out raids, free hostages and capture IS leaders. American special operators bring in a unique suite of capabilities that make them force mobile fliers. They will help us garner valuable ground intelligence, further enhance our air campaign, and above all enable local forces that can regain and then hold territory occupied by ISIL. Where we find further opportunity to leverage such capability, we are prepared to expand it. Our Washington correspondent Gary O'Donoghue has more on the role of the US forces. A rather vivid phrase that Ash Carter used in his testimony to Congress this morning, he said he wanted Islamic State fighters to wonder who is gonna come in through the window during the night. And so that there will be extra special forces possibly in Syria, certainly in Iraq. They will conduct raids. They will try to kill ISIS leaders. They will try rescue hostages. And this is all recognition, I think, that the US feels it has to intensify the battle against Islamic State, that the air war is not enough. And it is calling on its coalition allies to do the same.
美国防部长阿什•卡特称，美国将向伊拉克派遣特种部队，打击活跃在伊拉克和叙利亚的“伊斯兰国”极端组织。卡特表示称，部队将完成突袭、解救人质、抓获“伊斯兰国”领导人等任务。美军特种部队拥有独一无二的强大战斗能力，能够增强空中打击力度。获取宝贵的地面情报，提高空袭效率，最重要的是协助当地武装重夺，并占领“伊斯兰国”土地。我们拥有这样的影响力，我们希望将其扩大。请听本台驻华盛顿记者加里•奥当诺奎对此次行动的分析。今天早上，阿什•卡特在众议院委员会上“声情并茂”。他称他要让激进组织每天晚上夜不能寐，不知道谁将会从窗而入。所以很有可能向叙利亚派遣特种部队，伊拉克是绝对会有的。部队进行突袭行动。杀害“伊斯兰国”头领。解救人质。美方对加强打击力度有了清醒的认识，空袭远远不够。并呼吁联盟其他国家同样派遣地面部队。

Hundreds of scientists have gathered in Washington for an international summit on gene editing. The Nobel Laureate David Baltimore said the delegates must consider what he called the deep and disturbing questions raised by the new technology. From Washington, here's Fergus Walsh. It's just three years since a new, cheap and easy form of gene editing was discovered and already labs across the world have adopted it. It raises the hope that patients with muscle, blood or immune disorders could have their faulty tissue removed, treated in the lab and then healthy cells re-infused. But if gene editing was done in embryos, then any DNA changes would pass down the generations. That might allow a permanent fix for some genetic diseases.
数百名科学家齐聚华盛顿，参加人类基因编辑峰会。诺贝尔获得主戴维•巴尔的摩认为，与会代表应该审视这项新技术为人类所带来的一系列深刻问题。请听费格斯•沃尔什为您从华盛顿带来的报道。人类发现基因编辑技术也只不过短短三年，许多国家也已经着手进行应用。病人或将可以通过移除病变组织，重新注入健康细胞的方式治愈疾病，这为肌肉、血液以及免疫系统疾病患者带去了希望。但如果对人类胚胎进行基因编辑，更改过的DNA将代代延续。那么这将有助于治疗遗传疾病。

The campaigning organization Amnesty International says Eritrea's conscription system is helping fuel a growing refugee crisis. Amnesty says the national service often amounts to forced labor with many conscripts made to work for decades often in nonmilitary jobs such as construction or farming. Tomi Oladipo reports. Amnesty is asking the international community to recognize Eritrea system of indefinite national service as a human rights violation. The organization says this compulsory recruitment is the main reason why young Eritreans are fleeing the country. Most cannot leave legally, and end up on dangerous journeys across land and sea, heading often for Europe. Some people who fled the country told Amnesty of harsh working conditions for those drafted and brutal punishments by the military for any caught trying to evade the system.
