英音听力讲解:沙特首富阿勒瓦利德王子获释

Hello, I'm Mary Marshall with the BBC News.
The number of people killed in the Taliban bomb attack in the Afghan capital Kabul has risen to 95. A further 158 others were injured. The Red Cross in Afghanistan has condemned the use of an ambulance to carry out an attack,saying it could be illegal under International Humanitarian Law. Our South Asia editor Joemy Giverin reports. The ambulance packed with explosives blew up close to a fortified area of the city near a hospital, but also offices used by the government, security forces and foreign missions. The street was crowded and most of the dead were local civilians. It's the Taliban second major attack in Kabul in a week. The current surgent violence comes as the US increases its support for Afghan forces, including more air strikes on militant targets and made government claims that it's finally winning the war against the Taliban and other militant groups.
塔利班武装在阿富汗首都喀布尔制造了炸弹袭击，遇难人数已经上升到了95人，另外还有158人受伤。阿富汗红十字会对塔利班使用救护车进行袭击表示谴责，称此举可能违背了国际人道主义法，以下是本台驻南亚编辑卓米•吉夫林的报道。装载着炸药的救护车在市区一块戒备森严的地区爆炸，这附近有一家医院，还有政府，安全部队和驻外使馆使用的办公楼。这条街人员密集，大部分死者为当地市民，这是塔利班武装本周在喀布尔发动的第二次特大袭击。近期塔利班猛烈的攻势是由于美国增加对了阿富汗军队的支持，包括增加对塔利班的空中打击，并且让阿富汗政府宣布他们最终打赢了塔利班和其他武装组织。

The multibillionaire Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal is the latest high-profile figure to be released in Saudi Arabia after a major anti-corruption drive was launched in November. He is reported to have been freed this morning from detention in a luxury hotel in Riyadh. With more details, here is our Middle East analyst Sebastian Usher. In hot cash terms, Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal has been the biggest catch of all in the Saudi purge with an extraodinary array of business interests across the world. He is estimated to be worth some 17 billion dollars. He denied any charge has been made against him and expressed his total support forthe efforts by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman towards a new Saudi Arabia. He vehemently dismissed a report, but he had been asked to hand over six billion dollars as the price ofhis release as well as rumors that he been tortured.
