The war-torn nation of Afghanistan is where we start. Despite an effort by a U.S.-led coalition to topple the nation's former rulers, a terrorist group known as the Taliban, they continue to pose a major challenge for the Afghan government. And the ISIS terrorist group, which also operates in Afghanistan, is making conditions even more complicated and deadly.
今天首先來關注飽受戰(zhàn)爭摧殘的阿富汗。雖然美國領導的聯(lián)盟推翻了阿富汗前統(tǒng)治者——名為塔利班的恐怖組織,但是該組織仍是阿富汗政府面臨的主要挑戰(zhàn)。另外,ISIS恐怖組織也會在阿富汗制造襲擊,這使情況變得更加復雜和致命。
This month, more than 150 people have been killed in the Middle Eastern country, the majority of them in attacks over the last nine days. An assault on a military base in the capital of Kabul left 11 dead yesterday. An ambulance filled with explosives killed more than 100 people over the weekend. Attacks on a charity group named Save the Children and on people staying at a hotel in Kabul are among those that killed dozens more.

The Taliban said it was behind two of these assaults while ISIS claimed the rest. And reporters there say residents are increasingly afraid that the Afghan government can't protect them. The country is holding a national day of prayer on Tuesday.

Regardless of where they're stationed around the world, a fitness tracking application could be posting their movements publicly for anyone to see.
無論美軍駐守在世界哪個地方,一款健身追蹤應用都能公開他們的運動情況,使任何人都能看到。
And that could be a serious security problem. It starts innocently enough. A few U.S. troops used an app to track their morning run, how far they go, how long it takes.

They're supposed to be trained on how to turn on the privacy settings on their smartphone or watch, but they don't. And suddenly, their route which might include sensitive information about their base for instance is public. The U.S. Central Command says it's changing its privacy policies after this happened.
他們應該接受訓練,了解如何打開智能手機或智能手表上的隱私設置,但是他們并沒有這樣做。突然,他們的路線被公開了,而這可能包括一些有關他們所在軍事基地的敏感信息。美國中央司令部表示,在這種情況出現(xiàn)后,他們改變了其隱私政策。
