**南非警察向罢工矿工开枪造成至少30死亡**
南非警备部说，南非警察星期四向一个铂金矿的罢工工人开枪，打死至少30人。
南非警备部官员星期五说，警察使用自动武器向隆明公司铂金矿的工人开枪。这座铂金矿位于约翰内斯堡西北方大约120公里。
这场罢工是薪酬争端引起的，大约3千名工人参加了罢工。隆明公司星期四早些时候发表声明警告工人说，如果他们不复工，就将被开除。冲突结束后，该矿管理机构发表声明说，一些罢工工人带有武器。
在星期四的冲突之前，与矿工罢工有关的暴力冲突已经造成十人死亡，其中包括两名警察。
隆明公司的铂金出产量位居世界第三。

South Africa's police ministry says at least 30 people were killed Thursday, when officers opened fire on striking workers at a platinum mine.
A ministry official said Friday that police opened fire with automatic weapons at the Lonmin PLC mine, about 120 kilometers northwest of Johannesburg.
Around 3,000 people have walked off the job in the past week over a pay dispute. Lonmin issued a statement earlier Thursday, warning workers they would be dismissed if they did not return to work by Friday. After the clashes, the management issued a statement saying some of the strikers were armed.
Prior to Thursday's deadly clash, 10 people, including two police officers had been killed in violence related to the mine strike.
Lonmin is the world's third largest platinum producer.
**日本准备遣返14名中国登岛人士**
日本已经决定遣返因登上东海一个有争议岛屿而被逮捕的14名中国活动人士。东京和北京都宣称对这个岛屿拥有主权。
星期三，这14名中国活动人士登上这个岛屿，插中国国旗，唱中国国歌，随后被日方逮捕，被控违反了日本的移民法。
日本警方星期五说，这14名中国活动人士已经被转交移民机构，准备予以遣返。日本内阁官房长官藤村修星期五在东京对记者说，他不清楚遣返这14名中国活动人士的具体日期。

Japan has decided to deport 14 Chinese activists who were arrested after landing on an island claimed by both Tokyo and Beijing.
The activists landed on the island in the East China Sea on Wednesday, planting a Chinese flag and singing the country's national anthem before being arrested and accused of violating Japanese immigration laws.
Police said Friday that all 14 had been transferred to immigration for processing. Chief Cabinet Secretary told reporters in Tokyo Friday that he did not know when the deportations would take place.
Beijing has demanded that the activists be unconditionally released.
