CNN News: 伊朗進行導彈試射 美國稱不違反伊核協(xié)議

At the midpoint of the week, we`re starting with news about Iran. The Middle Eastern country tested out a number of ballistic missiles yesterday that has the international community, including the U.S., concern because it might break a United Nations resolution. It calls on Iran not to develop missiles that could carry nuclear weapons. Iran says it doesn`t have nuclear weapons and that this missile launch only tested conventional weapons.

今天是星期三，我們的頭條新聞是關于伊朗。昨日，伊朗在多地試射彈道導彈，引發(fā)美國等國在內(nèi)的國際社會的不安。國際社會呼吁伊朗不要研發(fā)攜帶核武器的導彈。伊朗方面稱自己并沒有核武器，這枚導彈發(fā)射只是對常規(guī)武器進行測試。

But a U.S. government source said the U.N. Security Council might investigate the launch and consider action against Iran. The Obama administration says the test did not violate a controversial nuclear deal with Iran that the U.S. led last year.

美國政府消息人士稱，聯(lián)合國安理會可能會對伊朗進行調查。但奧巴馬政府稱這次測試沒有違反美國與伊朗去年簽署的核協(xié)議。而美伊簽署這項協(xié)議人們備有爭議。

Our next story, the U.S. military says a terrorist group in Africa took a major hit over the weekend. Al Shabaab, which is based in the East African nation of Somalia, was a target of a U.S. airstrike. American officials say the Islamic militant group had about 200 fighters at a camp and that they posed an imminent threat because they were planning some type of a major attack, possibly targeting American and African Union military forces in Somalia.

下一條新聞，美國軍方稱于上周末重擊非洲恐怖組織索馬里“青年黨”。美國官員稱，這個伊斯蘭武裝組織每個營地約有200名武裝分子，而這些人構成的威脅迫在眉睫。因為他們計劃針對美國和非洲聯(lián)盟于索馬里的軍事力量發(fā)動襲擊。

But in Saturday`s airstrike, U.S. authorities believe as many as 150 al Shabaab members were killed by drones and manned aircraft. An official from al Shabaab disputes that number, saying only a few fighters died in the assault. Either way, the strike, while destructive, is not expected to eliminate the threat from these terrorists.

在周六的空襲行動中，美國當局認為利用無人機和載人飛機擊斃150名武裝分子。但一名索馬里官員對這個數(shù)字表示質疑。這位官員稱只有少數(shù)武裝分子在這次襲擊中死亡。無論結果如何，盡管這次行動具有很強的打擊力，但尚不能消除武裝分子的威脅。
