A video has been released on the Internet purporting to show the beheading of the US journalist Steven Sotloff by Islamic  State militants.

伊斯蘭國(guó)的極端組織已經(jīng)在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上發(fā)布了一段視頻，顯示了美國(guó)記者史蒂芬·索特洛夫[Steven Sotloff]被該組織武裝人員斬首。

The video shows a masked figure with a knife standing over Mr Sotloff, who was abducted in Syria last year.

這段視頻顯示，一名頭戴面具的男子在Sotloff先生的頭上手持一把刀子，他是去年在敘利亞被綁架。

The jihadist also issued a threat against a British hostage and warned governments to end their alliance against IS.

該圣戰(zhàn)主義者還對(duì)一名英國(guó)人質(zhì)發(fā)出威脅，并警告各國(guó)政府停止為打擊伊斯蘭國(guó)而組成的聯(lián)盟。

Barbara  Plett Usher reports from Washington.

芭芭拉[Barbara Plett Usher]華盛頓報(bào)道。

US officials said if the video was genuine they would be sickened and appalled by this brutal act taking another innocent  American life.

美國(guó)官員稱如果該視頻是真實(shí)的，他們將會(huì)為武裝分子殺害又一名無(wú)辜的美國(guó)人的殘暴行徑感到厭惡和驚駭。

Islamic State had warned it would kill a second US journalist if Washington refused to stop air strikes  against its fighters in Iraq.

The video apparently highlights the failure of intense US efforts to free a number of American  hostages still held by the extremists.

該視頻明顯表明了美國(guó)爭(zhēng)取釋放幾名被極端分子劫持的美國(guó)人質(zhì)的努力宣告失敗了。

None of the countries to which Washington has appealed for help seemed to have any  influence on the group.

華盛頓求助的任何一個(gè)國(guó)家，似乎都對(duì)該組織沒(méi)有影響力。

It would also increase pressure on President Obama to go after the militants at their base in Syria,  which he has been reluctant to do.

該事件還可能向奧巴馬總統(tǒng)增加壓力，要求其打擊敘利亞的武裝分子基地，這是奧巴馬總統(tǒng)一直不愿意做的。

and said so few medical staff were available that some treatment centres were now places where patients went to  die.

也沒(méi)有足夠的醫(yī)療工作者，一些治療中心已經(jīng)成為病人等待死亡來(lái)臨的地方。

The UN's coordinator for the response to the crisis David Nabarro said the world needed to do more.

應(yīng)對(duì)這場(chǎng)危機(jī)的聯(lián)合國(guó)協(xié)調(diào)人員戴維·納巴羅[David Nabarro]表示，全世界應(yīng)該采取更多的措施。
