1. After concentrating their efforts for weeks on northern Gaza, Israel’s armed forces announced on Sunday that they would increasingly turn their attention to fighting Hamas in the south. The day before Hamas claimed that Israeli operations in Gaza had killed 200 people in 24 hours. Israel’s forces also said that they had detected a number of “launches” originating from Lebanon and had retaliated. They also claimed to have fired artillery barrages and airstrikes towards “a number of areas” belonging to their northern neighbour, hitting a military command center** belonging to**Hizbullah, an Iran-backed militia.



在集中數周的努力後,以色列軍隊在周日宣佈他們將逐漸將注意力轉向南加薩,重點打擊哈馬斯。就在此前一天,哈馬斯聲稱以色列在加薩的行動在24小時內造成了200人死亡。以色列軍隊還表示他們發現了一些源自黎巴嫩的“發射”,並進行了報復。他們還聲稱向屬於他們北方鄰居的“若干地區”發射了炮擊和空襲,擊中了伊朗支持的真主党的一個軍事指揮中心。


2. A US Navy destroyer patrolling the Red Sea shot down four drones flying towards it from the Houthi-controlled part of Yemen, according to America’s armed forces. The Iran-backed militant group has been attacking vessels in the region, which is a major artery for global shipping. Separately, America also said that a drone fired from Iran struck a tanker off the coast of India.


一艘在紅海巡邏的美國海軍驅逐艦擊落了四架從葉門胡塞武裝控制區飛向它的無人機,據美國軍方稱。這個伊朗支援的激進組織一直在襲擊該地區的船隻,而這個地區是全球航運的重要通道。另外,美國還表示,一架從伊朗發射的無人機襲擊了印度沿海的一艘油輪。


3. Poland’s president, Andrzej Duda, said he would veto a budget proposed by the new liberal government, led by Donald Tusk. Mr Duda, who is loyal to the recently ousted national-conservative Law and Justice (PiS) party, said the bill’s funding of public media was “unacceptable”. Mr Tusk’s government has tried to purge state media of PiS loyalists. Mr Duda also vowed to submit his own budget, something that sits outside the president’s authority.


波蘭總統安傑依·杜達表示,他將否決由新任總理唐納德·圖斯克領導的自由派政府提出的預算。杜達先生忠誠于最近被罷黜的國家保守派法律和公正黨(PiS),他表示該預算對公共媒體的資助是“不可接受的”。圖斯克先生的政府試圖清除國家媒體中的PiS忠實成員。杜達還誓言提交自己的預算,這是超出總統職權範圍的事務。


4. A senior official in Ukraine’s defence ministry was arrested, for allegedly embezzling nearly $40m by buying artillery shells at inflated prices. Authorities did not release the official’s name. In September Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukraine’s president, replaced his defence minister after months of **corruption **scandals in his department. That unsettled allies funding the country’s war effort.


烏克蘭國防部的一名高級官員因涉嫌以虛高價格購買炮彈而被逮捕,據稱涉案金額近4000萬美元。當局未公佈該官員的姓名。在經歷了數月的部門腐敗醜聞後,烏克蘭總統弗拉基米爾·澤連斯基於九月替換了國防部長,這使資助該國戰爭努力的盟友感到不安。


5. A court in El Salvador ordered the arrest of Alfredo Cristiani, the president from 1989 to 1994, and four other ex-politicians for allegedly covering up the El Mozote massacre. In 1981 soldiers killed nearly 1,000 peasants from the north-eastern village of El Mozote. They were never charged, and in 1992 El Salvador’s congress passed a sweeping amnesty, which has since been ruled unconstitutional.


薩爾瓦多法院下令逮捕阿爾弗雷多·克利斯蒂亞尼,他在1989年至1994年擔任總統,以及其他四名前政治人物,原因是據稱他們掩蓋了埃爾莫索特大屠殺。1981年,士兵們在東北部村莊埃爾莫索特殺害了近1000名農民。他們從未受到指控,而1992年,薩爾瓦多國會通過了一項全面的大赦法案,此後被判違憲。


6. Rebecca Welchofficiated a football match between Fulham and Burnley, becoming the first woman to referee a men’s match in England’s Premier League, the top flight of the English game. In 2021 Ms Welch was the first woman to take charge of a match in the English Football League, the next tier down. A year earlier the Union of European Football Associations had added Ms Welch to their “elite list”, allowing her to referee at international women’s games.


蕾貝卡·韋爾奇執法了富勒姆和伯恩利之間的一場足球比賽,成為英格蘭頂級足球聯賽——英格蘭足球的最高水準比賽的第一位執法男子比賽的女性裁判。在2021年,韋爾奇女士成為英格蘭足球聯賽的第一位執法比賽的女性裁判,該聯賽是英格蘭足球體系中的下一層級。一年前,歐洲足球協會聯盟將韋爾奇女士加入到他們的“精英名單”中,使她有資格執法國際女子比賽。
