Our second story takes you to a battlefield in the Middle East. Since Syria's civil war broke out in 2011, we've told you how the U.S. and Russia have gotten involved, in addition to other countries. And while Israel is officially neutral on the conflict, it shares a short border with Syria, and it's keeping close tabs on what happens next door.


第二条新闻我们来关注中东战场。自2011年叙利亚内战爆发以来,我们已报道过美国、俄罗斯以及其他国家是如何卷入这场战争的。虽然以色列在冲突上保持中立,但它与叙利亚接壤,并一直密切关注该邻国的情况。


The Golan Heights is the name of a plateau between the two countries. It's under Israeli government control and it's one place where Israeli intelligence forces can gather information.
