BBC News with Jonathan Izard.

Jonathan Izard为您播报BBC新闻。

Hundreds of thousands of people in Nepal are spending a second night outdoors in the devastations of Saturday's earthquake. More than two and a half thousand people are confirmed dead in the disaster. But the death toll could rise as some of the worst-affected areas are still not being reached. Matt Davis works with the charity, World Vision, in the capital, Kathmandu. He's been speaking to people evacuated from the town of Pokhara near the epicentre of the quake.

这是数十万尼泊尔居民在周六发生灾难性地震之后在外度过的第二晚。还有2500多人被证实死亡。但是死亡总人数现在仍没有确定,因为受灾最严重地区死亡人数依然在上升。Matt Davis为加德满都慈善机构世界宣明会工作。下面是他对靠近震中地区受灾居民的讲话。

“I spoke to one man. He had been evacuated into the hospital where I was in the very first helicopter. His village had one thousand one hundred homes. Almost every home was decimated. He estimated that ninety percent. That's a village of over two thousand people. There could be many other villages in the similar case where the entire village is overgone.”

我已经和一位难民进行了谈话。他现在已经通过第一架直升机被转移到了医院。他的村庄有1100户人家。几乎所有住所都被摧毁。他估计有90%的住所被摧毁。那是一个有2000多户居民的村庄。该地区还有很多类似的村庄受到了同样的摧毁。

Rescue and aid efforts are being hampered by blocked roads and bad weather. Patrick Fuller from the International Federation of the Red Cross said it was still difficult to access remote rural areas.

救援和援助工作因道路堵塞和恶劣天气受到阻碍。红十字国际联合会的Patrick Fuller说想要抵达偏远地区依然非常困难。

“Getting to these areas is a big concern. It's big question mark. We simply don't know the situation. Nor does anyone, really, the scale of the damage outside the Kathmandu Valley. Its population, about six million people living in this area. We have Red Cross teams and units on the ground. We can't reach them. We knew our own people had been affected in Nepal. We lost a number of stuff and volunteers. The United Nations Children's Agency says the country is running out of water and food and there are frequent power cuts. It says almost one million children living in affected areas are threatened by poor sanitation and a lack of safe water.”

如何抵达这些地区是非常棘手的问题。我们甚至根本不知道里面什么情况。没有人知道加德满都以外的地区受灾情况如何。该地区有600万人口居住。我们当下有红十字会队伍和救援队伍,但是我们不能够深入到该地区。我们知道我们的救援队伍成员也在尼泊尔受到了难,我们损失了一些物资和志愿者。联合国儿童基金会说尼泊尔现在处于缺水少粮还经常断电的情境。该机构说大约有100万名儿童居住在面临卫生条件差和水资源缺少威胁的条件下。

Rescuers in Nepal say an unknown number of mountaineers are trapped on Mount Everest, unable to descend, after avalanches swept away their ropes and ladders. 17 climbers died on the Mountain on Saturday.

Police in Burundi have shot dead at least two people during protest against the selection of President Pierre Nkurunziza to run for a third term in office. Police fired teargas, water cannon and live bullets at demonstrators in the capital, Bujumbura. The United States says the governing party's decision to nominate Mr. Nkurunziza means Burundi has lost what it described as a historic opportunity to strengthen its democracy. From Bujumbura, here's Maud Julien.

布隆迪警方在抗议现任总统Pierre Nkurunziza竞选第三届连任选举游行活动中至少击毙两名示威者。警方用催泪弹,水泡和子弹对首都布琼布拉的示威者进行驱散。美国方面表示政府决定提名Nkurunziza的决定意味着布隆迪已经失去了加强民主的历史性机遇。下面是本台记者从布琼布拉发回的报道。

“Several groups of protesters in the capital erected barricades and threw stones at policemen, who responded with teargas and live bullets. Protesters chanted slogans for peace. And one told the BBC they would not leave the streets until the President vowed to step down at the end of his term next month. More than ten thousand people have fled Burundi since mid-April, fearing electoral tension could spiral out of control.”

数组抗议群众在首都设置路障,并向警方投掷石块。警方采用催泪弹和子弹作为回应。抗议者高呼和平口号。一位抗议者告诉BBC他们不会离开街道,直到总统发誓下个月结束任期下台。自四月中旬以来有一万多人因选举局面失控而逃离布隆迪。

President Hollande of France has warned that the dangers of persistent racism and anti-semitism during a visit to the site of the only former Nazi concentration camp on French soil. He was taking part in the ceremony to mark 70 years since Allied Troops liberated the camps at the end of the Second World War.

“It's not uncommon to hear people quote lines from the play. In here everyday, situations in life, in particular, with the cast members, because they are all seen about in town. Just about any time you go, you are gonna see someone who is a cast member there in the city. It's only sixty-three hundred people, so it's a small town. And everyone knows everyone, and most everyone has a relative who's been in the cast at one time or another. Dramatic Publishing said it was thrilled the play would continue to be presented in Harper Lee's hometown.”

听到人们引用戏剧表演台词情况非常常见,每天的生活,剧组成员等,因为在这个镇上每天都能够看到。无论何时,你随时都可能碰到该城市的剧组成员。这个小镇只有6300人,所以这是一个非常小的小镇。人和人之间都认识,几乎每个人都在这场剧或者另一场剧里有联系。戏剧出版社称活动将继续在哈珀李的家乡举行是非常令人激动的。
