印度尼西亚雅加达电——官员于周五表示,本月初一艘渡轮在恶劣海况下倾覆后,印尼潜水员经过数日的搜救行动,总共打捞出了52具遗体。当局此前已救出108人,但仍有83人失踪。

EDNA TARIGAN JAKARTA, Indonesia — Divers in Indonesia have recovered a total of 52 bodies in a dayslong operation that followed the capsizing of a ferry in rough seas earlier this month, officials said Friday. Authorities had rescued 108 people, but 83 people remain missing.

“处女运输8号”(Virgo Transport 8)渡轮载有243人,当时正从东爪哇的泗水驶往婆罗洲岛南加里曼丹省的马辰。该船于9月13日发出求救信号,称船只在高达3米(10英尺)的巨浪和恶劣海况中倾斜。随后,当局得知该渡轮在爪哇海马萨勒姆博群岛水域倾覆。

The Virgo Transport 8 ferry was en route from Surabaya in East Java to Banjarmasin in South Kalimantan on Borneo island with 243 people on board when it issued a distress call on Sept. 13, reporting the vessel was listing in rough seas, with waves reaching 3 meters (10 feet). Authorities later learned the ferry had capsized in the waters of the Masalembo archipelago in the Java Sea.

在搜救行动中,潜水员在水下砸碎渡轮窗户进入船舱,打捞出了遇难乘客的遗体。印尼国家搜查与救援局表示,已调集所有可用资源投入搜救工作。

During the search operation, divers recovered bodies of passengers after smashing ferry windows underwater to enter the ship. Indonesia’s Search and Rescue Agency said all available resources were being deployed in the search operation.

印尼国家搜查与救援局负责人穆罕默德·沙菲伊(Mohammad Syafii)表示:“我们的首要重点是找到失踪的遇难者,并给他们的家属一个交代。”

“Our primary focus is to locate the missing victims and provide closure to their families,” said Mohammad Syafii, head of Indonesia’s National Search and Rescue Agency.

该机构仍计划打捞这艘渡轮,将其残骸从大约30米(98英尺)深的水底拉出。

The agency is still planning to salvage the ferry and pull the wreckage from a depth of about 30 meters (98 feet).

打捞出的遗体已被运往婆罗洲马辰市的警察医院进行身份辨认,随后将移交给家属。

The recovered bodies have been taken to the police hospital in the Borneo city of Banjarmasin for identification before being handed over to their families.

印度尼西亚是一个由1.7万多个岛屿组成的群岛国家,渡轮是常见的交通方式。由于安全法规执行不力,灾难事故时有发生。

Indonesia is an archipelago of more than 17,000 islands where ferries are a common method of travel. Disasters occur regularly, with weak safety enforcement often blamed.
