Hundreds of Libyan rebels have arrived in the capital Tripoli after fighting their way from the west. They were greeted by people lining the streets and waving rebel flags. Earlier, the rebels took control of a key military base on the western approach to Tripoli. Other rebels have set up checkpoints in suburbs on the eastern outskirts of the capital. There's been gunfire near the central hotel where foreign journalists are staying. Matthew Price sent this report.
数百名利比亚叛军从西部一直向前推进,现在已经抵达首都的黎波里,人们列道两旁,挥舞着叛军旗帜对他们表示欢迎。此前,叛军控制了西部通往的黎波里途中的一个关键的军事基地。其他叛军在首都东部郊区设置了检查点。外国记者入住的中央酒店附近出现了枪声。Matthew Price发回报道。
The rebels have called this "zero hour" - the hour when the uprising came back to Tripoli. Throughout the night and much of the day, there's been the sound of gunfire, small arms and heavy weapons and explosions, both sides fighting in what may be the final battle of this six-month-long conflict. It's clear there have been bloody battles in parts of the city. In areas where the fighting has not been taking place, people were said to be staying indoors. A government source here told the BBC that there are 65,000 professional soldiers loyal to Colonel Gaddafi ready to defend this city. The source also believes that the tribes here are preparing to protect their own.
利比亚叛军称这是“决战时刻”——此时此刻,反抗行动回到的黎波里。整个夜晚以及白天的大部分时间,空气中一直弥漫着枪声,轻重武器和爆炸声,双方都在这场持续了六个月的冲突的最后战争中进行最后的努力。很明显,在这座城市的部分地区发生了血腥战斗。据说在没有发生战斗的地区,人们都待在室内。政府消息来源告诉BBC,还有65,000名忠于卡扎菲上校的职业士兵准备包围这座城市。该消息来源还相信这里的部落也做好了保卫自己领土的准备。
The Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi says he'll not abandon Tripoli and that he'll stay there until the end. Speaking on Libyan state TV, Colonel Gaddafi also said he would be victorious.
利比亚领袖卡扎菲宣布他不会放弃的黎波里,他将一直待在那里直到最后。在利比亚国家电视台发表讲话时,卡扎菲上校还表示他一定会取得胜利。
"I am with you in this battle; I am in your midst now; I am with you with my rifle. We will not surrender; we won't ever abandon Tripoli for colonisers and traitors; we will sacrifice Tripoli with our blood and soul; we will sacrifice Libya with our blood and soul."
“我在战争中和你们在一起;我现在就在你们中间,我手中也拿起了枪。我们不会投降,我们永远不会将的黎波里交给殖民者和叛国者,我们将牺牲我们的鲜血和生命来保卫的黎波里;我们将牺牲我们的鲜血和生命来保卫利比亚。”
There have been renewed international calls for Colonel Gaddafi to stand down immediately. A Nato spokeswoman said his government was crumbling. The White House said it believed his days were numbered. The German Chancellor Angela Merkel said it would be good if Colonel Gaddafi gave up power as quickly as possible. The French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Libya had reached a decisive moment.

The Syrian President Bashar al-Assad says his government is in no danger of falling despite five months of street protests. In an interview with state television, he defended his response to the protests.
叙利亚总统阿萨德表示,尽管已经发生了五个月的街头抗议,他的政府没有垮台的危险。在国家电视台的采访中,他向抗议者表达了自己的态度。
"The solution in Syria is a political one, but if there is violence, it should be met. Police, security and riot police - any country in the world, they use these means to quash any anti-social behaviour."
“叙利亚采取的是政治性的解决方法。但是如果发生了暴力活动,我们一定会做出回应。警方,安全力量和防暴警察——全世界任何地方都使用这些手段来平息任何反社会的行为。”
He said steps were being taken to introduce a multi-party system.
他说,政府正在采取措施引入多党派的系统。
"The main thing is to allow parties time to form their bases, to form their manifestos and to mobilise. But as a medium, middle-of-the-road option, maybe within six months, we could see elections."
“关键的一点是允许各党派有时间来建立自己的基础,形成自己的宣言,让他们运作起来。但是作为媒介,或许六个月之后我们会举行选举。”

At a giant arena, on a stage covered in candles, an artist sang of My Little Norway - a handful of peace among plateaus and fjords. This was Norway's national ceremony of remembrance. With music and poems and speeches, this is how a nation brought to an end one month of mourning. In the hall were family members and friends of the dead, and those too who had survived the shooting spree on Utoeya island. In a speech, King Harald of Norway declared that freedom is stronger than fear. Norwegians, he said, would continue to live freely.
