Hello, I’m Stewart Macintosh with the BBC news.

你好，斯图尔特麦金塔为您播报。

Hillary Clinton has spent 11 hours answering questions put by a Republican dominated congressional committee investigating a deadly attack on the US diplomatic compound in Benghazi in 2012. Mrs. Clinton, the frontrunner for the democratic presidential ticket defend herself against accusations that she failed to give adequate protection to the US mission in Libya when she was the secretary of state. “I came here because I said I would and I have done everything I know to do as have the people with whom I've worked to try to answer your questions. I cannot do any more than that. The answers have changed not at all since I appeared two years ago before the house in the senate. It is deeply unfortunate that something as serious as what happened in Benghazi could ever be used for partisan political purposes.”

希拉里•克林顿(Hillary Clinton)花了11个小时回答由共和党主导的国会委员会提出的有关调查2012年美国与班加西外交恶化时一起致命袭击的问题。克林顿夫人,民主党总统的领跑者，为她出任国务卿时没有给予美国在利比亚的任务足够的保护这一指责加以辩护。“我来到这里是因为我说我和我的工作团队愿意并且已经知道的所有的事情毫无保留的用来回答你的问题。我只能做到这里。从我两年前出现在参议院在众议院的那一刻起答案就不会改变了。非常不幸的是由于党派政治目的而发生了像班加西那么严重的事情。”

Russia is stepping up its diplomatic efforts to find a solution to the conflict in Syria as it continues its bombing campaign in support of President Assad. Later today, the Russian foreign minister will meet his counterparts from United States, Saudi Arabia and Turkey in Vienna. Bethany Bell is there. “The meeting in Vienna brings together some of President Assad's harshest critics, the Americans, the Turks and the Saudis. Speaking in Vienna before the talks, the Saudi foreign minister said Russian interference in Syria was very dangerous and that Mr. Assad should leave the country. But for now at least, Russia seems intent on showing up Mr. Assad's position.”

在继续支持阿萨德总统的轰炸行动的同时，俄罗斯在外交加大努力找到解决叙利亚冲突的方法。今天晚些时候,俄罗斯外交部长将在维也纳与来自美国、沙特阿拉伯和土耳其的外交官进行会面。伯大尼贝尔发来报道。“在维也纳的会议汇集了阿萨德总统最严厉的批评者,美国,土耳其和沙特。在维也纳会谈前,沙特阿拉伯外交部长说,俄罗斯干涉叙利亚的行为是非常危险的,阿萨德应该离开这个国家。但至少到目前为止,俄罗斯似乎打算支持阿萨德。

American defense officials have insisted that a raid by US and Kurdish forces on a prison run by Islamic State militant in northern Iraq does not reflect a change of tactics. About 70 captives were freed. Here's Gary O’Donoghue. “The press secretary Peter Cook said information had suggested that the prisoners were facing imminent mass execution within hours. American helicopters transported troops to the town of Hawijah, 40 miles southwest of Kirkuk. Officials here say a number of IS militants were killed in the raid and five captured along with what they described as important intelligence about the militant group. It's the first American combat casualty in the fight against Islamic State. Nevertheless, the head of Central Command said the operation had been highly successful.”

美国国防部官员坚称,美国和库尔德人部队的突袭在伊拉克北部伊斯兰国家激进分子控制的监狱的行动没有反映出战术的改变。大约有70俘虏被释放。加里·多诺霍阿为您播报。新闻秘书彼得•库克表示信息表明在数小时内大量囚犯被执行死刑。美国用直升机将部队运送到基尔库克镇西南40英里外的Hawijah。政府官员称, 在袭击中大量激进分子丧生，五名被捕，并取得了以及所谓的激进组织的重要情报。这是美国在打击伊斯兰国家作战时第一次伤亡。然而,中央司令部说,这次行动已经非常成功。
