沙特阿拉伯民航总局(GACA)周三表示,针对沙特两座机场的袭击已造成3人死亡、36人受伤。
Three people were killed and 36 others were injured in attacks targeting two airports in Saudi Arabia, the kingdom's General Authority of Civil Aviation said Wednesday.
GACA称,位于利雅得的哈立德国王国际机场和阿卜哈国际机场于周二和周三分别遭到两次袭击,紧急救援及相关部门已对这两起事件作出响应。
GACA said Abha International Airport and King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh were targeted in two separate attacks Tuesday and Wednesday, with emergency and relevant authorities responding to both incidents.
该机构表示,对阿卜哈国际机场的袭击造成两名居民死亡(一名摩洛哥人、一名阿尔及利亚人),并导致28人受伤。
The attack on Abha International Airport killed two residents -- one Moroccan and one Algerian -- and injured 28 people, the authority said.
GACA补充说,伤者包括两名沙特公民以及孟加拉国和菲律宾籍居民,伤势从轻微到严重不等。
The injured included two Saudi citizens and residents of Bangladeshi and Filipino nationalities, with injuries ranging from minor to serious, GACA added.
该机构称,在哈立德国王国际机场,一名苏丹国籍人员遇难,8人受伤,其中包括5名沙特人、2名埃及人和1名巴基斯坦人。
At King Khalid International Airport, a Sudanese national was killed and eight people were injured, including five Saudi, two Egyptian and a Pakistani national, the authority said.
GACA表示,所有伤者均已被立即送往医院接受治疗,并补充说这两起袭击还造成了物资损失。
All those injured were immediately taken to hospitals for medical treatment, GACA said, adding that the two attacks also caused material damage.
该机构表示,其正继续与相关安全机构协调,以评估损失并采取必要措施确保乘客和机场员工的安全。也门胡塞武装周三声称,他们发动了针对这两座机场的袭击。
The authority said it continues to coordinate with relevant security agencies to assess the damage and take necessary measures to ensure the safety of passengers and airport employees. Yemen's Houthis claimed Wednesday that they had carried out attacks targeting both airports.
胡塞武装军事发言人叶海亚·萨雷亚表示,该组织使用无人机袭击了位于利雅得的哈立德国王国际机场,并使用弹道导弹和无人机对阿卜哈国际机场展开了另一场军事行动。
Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said the group targeted King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh with drones and carried out another operation against Abha International Airport using ballistic missiles and drones.
支持也门国际承认政府的沙特主导的多国联军与胡塞武装之间的冲突近期呈升级趋势,袭击正是在此背景下发生的。
The attacks came amid an escalation between the Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition supporting Yemen's internationally recognized government.
自2015年3月以来,沙特阿拉伯一直领导一个军事联盟,支持也门政府打击胡塞武装。
Saudi Arabia has led a military coalition supporting the Yemeni government against the Houthis since March 2015.
