President Obama is preparing to deliver a televised address outlining his much-anticipated strategy to combat the militant group Islamic State. The US Secretary of the State John Kerry is in the Middle East to ensure support for US-backed international action against the Islamic State. Virginie Vaginason reports from the White House.

奧巴馬總統(tǒng)正在準備發(fā)表電視講話向公眾闡明自己對打擊伊斯蘭恐怖組織的戰(zhàn)略計劃。美國國務卿約翰克里正在中東為美國打擊伊斯蘭組織做準備工作。Virginie Vaginason 從白宮發(fā)回報道。

In a prime time television address to the nation, the president will explain how the US plans to degrade and ultimately destroy the Islamic State. The White House says Mr. Obama will outline a comprehensive strategy which includes military action and support for forces on the ground fighting IS, namely the moderate Syrian opposition and the Iraqi security forces. The president could also announce the extension of the existing air campaign in Iraq to neighboring Syria.

在黃金時段的電視講話中，總統(tǒng)將詳細解釋美國對抗伊斯蘭策略計劃，最終將完全消滅伊斯蘭組織。白宮方面說奧巴馬將會對全面戰(zhàn)略計劃做陳述解釋，包括軍事行動和地面部隊支持，也就是與敘利亞反對派和伊拉克安全部隊進行合作?？偨y(tǒng)還宣布對伊拉克的空襲行動將延伸到敘利亞方向。

Just eight days to go to the independent referendum in Scotland, the British Prime Minister David Cameron said he would be heartbroken if the union was torn apart. All three main political party leaders went to Scotland to campaign for No votes. Colin Blame reports from Glasgow.

距離蘇格蘭公投還有八天時間，英國首相戴維卡梅倫表示如果英國出現分裂的話他會非常傷心。三位主要政黨領導人驅身前往蘇格蘭為英國統(tǒng)一做拉票活動宣傳。Colin Blame在格拉斯哥報道。

It was the prospect of seeing Scots choosing independence which brought all three party leaders north on the same day. They didn't share a platform in Scotland, but their approach was broadly similar - a passionate appeal to Scottish voters to remain within the UK family. Scotland's First Minister Alex Salmond dismissed their interventions as a last ditch sign of desperation. An opinion poll for tomorrow's Daily Record suggests the pro-UK campaign has a lead over the Yes camp. Ten percent had still to make up their minds; but when undecided voters were factored out, the poll put No ahead by 53% to 47%.

種種跡象表明蘇格蘭選擇獨立的可能性很大，所以三位主要政黨領導人當日決定動身前往英國北部蘇格蘭地區(qū)。他們在蘇格蘭沒有一個共享平臺，但是他們的目的是高度一致的，蘇格蘭選民仍身處英國領域范圍。蘇格蘭首席大臣亞歷克斯駁回了他們最后一搏的計劃。據每日記錄的民調顯示支持英國統(tǒng)一的票數已經超過了支持蘇格蘭獨立的票數。還有10%的人數沒有做投票，但是據估測投統(tǒng)一票的將會有47%到53%。

The footage showed Osama Mohammed Osman beating the children, who are aged between four and seven with a wooden stick and kicking them like a football. Their crime, according to him, was turning on a television set and opening a fridge without his permission. The video, which was widely circulated in social media, provoked such an outcry that President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi intervened. Mr. Osman has been convicted of assault, forced child labor, and violating child laws.
