This is the BBC news. Hello, I'm Nick Kelly.
The American defense secretary Ash Carter has hailed the recapture of the Iraqi city of Ramadi by government troops as a significant step forward in the campaign to defeat IS. The BBC's TF is in Ramadi.
美国国防部长卡特称赞政府军重夺伊拉克城市拉马迪为朝着击败伊斯兰国结果的重大进展，记者在拉马迪报道。

He sent this report on the extent of the damage inflicted on the city. Iraqi forces have cleared the main street but no one dares to step into the rubble or enter the shattered buildings. Boobytraps are everywhere. Operations are still under way in the city center and in the northern quarters where Iraqi troops supported by coalition war planes are hunting retreating IS militants. But in the neighborhoods that we visited, there was no sign of life except for the soldiers standing guard. Iraqi troops are close to victory in Ramadi but this is a city that has been sacrificed in battle. Iraqi prime minister Haider al-Abadi has said that the coming year will see the total defeat of IS in Iraq. Mr al-Abadi said Iraqi forces would now go on to liberate Mosul, the main city in Northern Iraq which is by far the most populous center under IS control.
他报道了该市遭受破坏的程度，伊拉克军队已经清理了主要街道，但没人敢踏入瓦砾堆和被毁建筑中，因为到处都是诡雷。目前该市中部和北部城区仍在进行战斗，在那里，有联盟战机帮助下的伊拉克部队正在追捕伊斯兰国武装分子。但在我们走访的城区，除了警卫的士兵外看不到生命的迹象。伊拉克部队即将在拉马迪取得胜利，但这个城市被战争毁掉了。伊拉克总理阿巴迪称将在新的一年里打败伊拉克的伊斯兰国组织，他说伊拉克军队现在准备解放伊拉克北部重要城市曼苏尔，该市到目前为止一直是伊斯兰国控制下人口最多的城市。

The US secretary of state John Kerry says Iran has taken a significant step toward fulfilling its nuclear commitments by sending a large quantity of uranium abroad.

Saudi Arabia says it will cut fuel and utility subsidies in the country as part of measures to deal with the record budget deficit. The Saudi press agency reported that the price of petrol would rise by at least 50 percent. The government registered a budget deficit of 98 billion dollars for 2015. It's the first budget under the rule of king Salman. This budget represents the beginning of an integrated and comprehensive programme to build a stronger economy based on solid foundations, which has multiple sources of income, and where savings are growing and jobs are many.
