A day after al-Shabab militants¹ murdered nearly 150 people at a university in Kenya, police in neighbouring Uganda say they have received information that a similar attack is being planned there. Catherine Byaruhanga is in Kampala.

就在青年党武装分子在肯尼亚大学发动袭击造成近150人死亡之后的一天，邻国乌干达警方称他们得到情报称有人在本国策划类似的袭击。下面是本台记者从坎帕拉发回的报道。

“The Inspector-General of Police Kale Kayihura says Uganda is now on high alert. He said that threats from the Somali Islamist group, al-Shabab, is focusing education institutions along a major highway that runs from the town of Jinja, about 80km east of Kampala, into the heart of the capital. Kenya and Uganda are targets of the militants, because their troops are part of an African Union force fighting the group in Somalia. The last attack by al-Shabab in Uganda was in 2010, when a restaurant and a rugby ground were bombed, killing² over 70 people.”

警察总长Kale Kayihura称乌干达现在处于高度警惕中，他说来自索马里伊斯兰组织青年党的威胁主要集中在一条主要高速路沿线的高校。该高速路从坎帕拉东部80公里处的金贾一直延伸到首都中部。肯尼亚和乌干达都是武装分子的袭击目标，因为两国的部队都参与了打击索马里青年党战斗的非盟部队。青年党在乌干达的最近一次袭击是在2010年，当时一座餐厅和一个橄榄球场发生爆炸案，导致70多人丧生。

Al-Qaeda militants in Yemen are trying to consolidate³ their hold on a major port city, as Houthis rebels continue their battle to take over Aden. Sebastian Usher⁴ has the details.

也门基地武装分子试图巩固其对一座重要港口城市的控制，而胡塞叛军仍在继续战斗，希望能夺取亚丁。下面是本台记者发回的详细报道。

“Attention has been focused on Aden in the past few days where the Houthis and their allies, soldiers loyal to the former leader Ali Abdullah Saleh are battling street by street to capture one of the last remaining strongholds of the President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi. But hundreds of kilometres to the east, al-Qaeda seems to have scored a new victory amids the continuing breakdown⁵ of the country. They've infiltrated⁶ and it seems overtaken over Mukala, a city of some 200,000 people. They've broken fellow militants out of prison, raided banks and stormed a military base, a sign that, as many fear, al-Qaeda may gain new strength from the conflict.”

在过去几周时间里焦点一直集中在在亚丁地区，胡塞及其盟军在街道上展开了激烈的冲突，希望夺取总统哈迪目前仍把持的最后一个据点，这些盟军是效忠于前领袖萨利赫的部队。但在东部几百公里处，在该国逐步崩溃的情形下，基地组织似乎夺取了新的胜利。他们渗透进穆卡拉并似乎已经夺取了这座有着20万人的城市。他们打败了从监狱里出来的武装分子，袭击银行并炮轰一座军事基地，正如很多人担心的那样，这表明基地组织可能从这次冲突中获得了新的力量。

The Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi has said that anyone caught looting in the city of Tikrit will be arrested. Mr. al-Abadi's warning follows reports of abandoned properties being looted after government forces recaptured Tikrit, the stronghold of the former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein from Islamic State militants last week. There's been no independent confirmation⁷ of these allegations. 

伊拉克总理Haider al-Abadi称所有在提特利特城市抢劫的人都将被逮捕。此前有报道称，在上周政府军从IS武装那里重夺提克里特后，有人掠夺了被人们抛弃的产业，该市是伊拉克前领袖萨达姆·侯赛因的大本营。目前这些说法尚未得到独立证实。

A man has walked free from prison in the American state of Alabama, after spending nearly 30 years on death row. Anthony Ray Hinton was convicted of murdering 2 restaurant managers in Birmingham in 1985. He always maintains his innocence⁸ and was granted a retrial last year. When new tests on bullets from the crime scene failed to prove they came from a revolver found at Mr. Hinton's home, prosecutors⁹ dropped the case.
