周六，一名自杀式炸弹袭击者在巴基斯坦西北部一处路边警察检查站引爆了一辆装载炸药的车辆，造成至少11人死亡、约30人受伤，官员表示，这显示出与阿富汗接壤地区的暴力活动正在升级。
A suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden vehicle at a roadside police checkpoint in northwestern Pakistan on Saturday, killing at least 11 people and wounding about 30 others, officials said, in a sign of increasing violence in the region bordering Afghanistan.
开伯尔-普什图省应急服务发言人比拉尔·法伊齐表示，袭击发生在德拉伊斯梅尔汗区。当地警察局长萨夫达尔·巴洛奇说，死伤者大多为安保人员和路人。
The attack occurred in Dera Ismail Khan, a district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, said Bilal Faizi, a spokesman for the provincial emergency service. Local police chief Safdar Baloch said most of those killed and wounded were security personnel and passers-by.
巴基斯坦塔利班（即“巴基斯坦塔利班运动”，简称TTP）在一份声明中宣称对该袭击负责。近年来，巴基斯坦经历了激进分子袭击激增，其中许多由TTP和被取缔的“俾路支解放军”（BLA）宣称负责，后者是一个主要在邻国俾路支省活动的分离主义组织。
The Pakistani Taliban, known as Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, or TTP, claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement. Pakistan has experienced a surge in militant attacks in recent years, many of them claimed by the TTP and the outlawed Baloch Liberation Army, or BLA, a separatist group mainly active in neighbouring Balochistan province.
TTP独立于但与阿富汗塔利班结盟，后者于2021年重掌阿富汗大权。
The TTP is separate from but allied with the Afghan Taliban, which returned to power in Afghanistan in 2021.
巴基斯坦官员多次指责阿富汗塔利班允许TTP成员从阿富汗领土开展活动，并要求喀布尔防止跨境袭击进入巴基斯坦。阿富汗当局否认允许其领土被用于攻击他国。
Pakistani officials have repeatedly accused the Afghan Taliban of allowing TTP members to operate from Afghan soil and have demanded that Kabul prevent cross-border attacks into Pakistan. Afghan authorities have denied allowing their territory to be used for attacks against other countries.
最新袭击发生在巴阿西南边境发生交火造成至少13名阿富汗塔利班武装分子死亡两天后，据巴基斯坦政府称。这是继巴基斯坦本周空袭阿富汗境内疑似武装分子藏身处后，双方敌对行动的最新升级。重燃的敌对行动威胁到中国、土耳其、卡塔尔和沙特阿拉伯为实现两国持久和平而进行的调解努力。
The latest attack came two days after fighting between Pakistan and Afghanistan along their southwestern border killed at least 13 Afghan Taliban, according to Pakistan’s government. It was the latest escalation between the neighbours following Pakistani strikes on alleged militant hideouts inside Afghanistan this week. The renewed hostilities threaten mediation efforts by China, Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia aimed at securing lasting peace between the two countries.
德拉伊斯梅尔汗靠近南瓦济里斯坦，后者曾是武装分子大本营，巴基斯坦军方近年来在那里开展了多次行动。
Dera Ismail Khan is near South Waziristan, a former militant stronghold where the Pakistani military has carried out several operations in recent years.
武装分子也经常袭击该地区的安全部队。2023年12月，一名自杀式炸弹袭击者在德拉伊斯梅尔汗一座警察局的大门处引爆了一辆装满炸药的车辆，造成至少23名安全部队人员丧生，这是该地区最致命的袭击之一。巴基斯坦圣战运动声称对该袭击负责，该组织是一个被认为源自巴基斯坦塔利班运动的小型武装团体。
Militants also frequently target security forces in the region. In December 2023, a suicide bomber detonated an explosives-laden vehicle at the main gate of a police station in Dera Ismail Khan, killing at least 23 security personnel in one of the deadliest attacks in the area. It was claimed by Tehreek-e-Jihad Pakistan, a small militant group believed to be an offshoot of the TTP.
