沙特机场遭袭致3人死亡、数十人受伤 沙特政府称遇难者包括两名女性和一名苏丹男性，其首都的机场也遭到袭击。胡塞武装发言人表示，该组织已对机场发动攻击。
3 Killed and Dozens Injured in Attacks on Saudi Airports The Saudi government said the dead included two women and a Sudanese man, and that its capital’s airport was hit. A Houthi spokesman said the militia had attacked the airports.
沙特阿拉伯周三表示，对两个主要机场的袭击已造成三人死亡、数十人受伤，这标志着该国对也门境内受伊朗支持的胡塞武装的新一轮战争进一步升级。
Saudi Arabia said on Wednesday that attacks on two major airports killed three people and injured dozens more, in an escalation of its renewed war against the Iranian-backed Houthi militia in Yemen.
沙特政府并未明确说明袭击者身份。此次袭击目标是位于利雅得的哈立德国王国际机场和沙特南部的阿布哈国际机场。胡塞武装军事发言人叶海亚·萨里周三表示，该组织已使用导弹或无人机袭击了这两个机场。
The Saudi government did not specify who launched the attacks, which hit the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh and the Abha International Airport in southern Saudi Arabia. Yahya Saree, a Houthi military spokesman, said on Wednesday that the militia had attacked both airports with missiles or drones.
近年来，胡塞武装在沙特境内造成的已知死亡人数极少，而此次在首都利雅得机场的伤亡情况将是首次得到确认的机场袭击事件。这些袭击可能预示着边境两侧冲突将进一步升级，尤其是在沙特支持的也门政府已向胡塞武装宣战，并正推进军事行动以从该组织手中夺回具有战略意义的领土之际。
The Houthis have managed to inflict few known fatalities on Saudi territory in recent years, and the kingdom’s toll would be first confirmed at an airport in the capital, Riyadh. The attacks could presage worse fighting on both sides of the border, just as the Saudi-backed Yemeni government has declared war against the Houthis and presses a military operation to retake strategically important territory from the group.
伦敦查塔姆研究所的也门问题专家法雷亚·阿尔-穆斯利米在最新袭击事件发生后表示：“我认为我们将看到沙特方面的反应比之前更加激进。”
“I think we will see the Saudis react even more aggressively than they have been doing,” said Farea Al-Muslimi, a Yemen specialist at Chatham House, a London-based research group, after the latest attacks.
沙特民航局表示，机场袭击发生在周二和周三，但并未说明具体袭击时间。沙特官方声明称，阿布哈机场有两名女性死亡、28人受伤，而哈立德国王机场则有一名苏丹男性死亡、八人受伤。
Saudi Arabia’s Civil Aviation Authority said the airport attacks occurred on Tuesday and Wednesday but did not specify when each was hit. Two women died and 28 people were injured at Abha, and a Sudanese man was killed and eight people injured at King Khalid, the kingdom’s statement said.
新一轮战斗使沙特阿拉伯与胡塞武装——这两个已对抗十余年的敌对势力——再次陷入全面战争。2015年，由沙特主导的也门干预行动演变成一场旷日持久的战争，导致数十万人死于暴力、饥饿和疾病，但未能击败胡塞武装。2022年达成的一项停火协议建立了一段脆弱的和平时期，直到冲突再度爆发。
The renewed fighting has put Saudi Arabia and the Houthis, adversaries for over a decade, back in outright war. In 2015, a Saudi-led intervention in Yemen devolved into a grinding war that contributed to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people from violence, hunger and disease, and failed to defeat the Houthis. A truce in 2022 established a fragile peace agreement until the conflict reignited.
在沙特战机的支援下，也门政府本周发起军事攻势，试图从获得伊朗支持的胡塞民兵组织手中夺回红海沿岸具有战略意义的领土。联合国一个机构周三表示，自9月初战斗升级以来，也门已有近20万人被迫流离失所。
The government of Yemen, backed by Saudi warplanes, began a military offensive this week to retake strategically important territory along the Red Sea from the Houthi militia, which is backed by Iran. A United Nations agency said Wednesday that nearly 200,000 people have been displaced in Yemen since early September, when fighting intensified.
周三，胡塞武装向也门南部由政府控制的城市亚丁的一座机场发射了导弹和无人机。沙特领导的军事联盟发言人称，他们在沙特首都北部拦截了一枚导弹。
On Wednesday, the Houthis fired missiles and drones at an airport in Aden, a government-controlled city in southern Yemen, and a spokesman for the Saudi-led military coalition said it had intercepted a missile north of Saudi Arabia’s capital.
随着美国与以色列对伊朗的战争演变为围绕霍尔木兹海峡等关键水道控制权的经济较量，胡塞武装也开始在红海展开自己的行动。
As the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran transformed into an economic contest over control of critical waterways like the Strait of Hormuz, the Houthis began their own push into the Red Sea.
该民兵组织控制着也门北部的大部分地区。今年7月，他们将红海视为沙特石油运输的替代航线，宣布实施封锁并袭击船只。上个月，胡塞武装通过闪电攻势占领了也门红海沿岸地区，击溃了沙特支持政府的部队，从而进一步巩固了对这条水道的控制。
The militia, which controls much of northern Yemen, took aim at the Red Sea as an alternate shipping route for Saudi oil in July, declaring a blockade and attacking vessels. Last month, the Houthis gained more sway over the waterway by capturing Yemen’s Red Sea coast in a lightning offensive, trouncing the forces of the Saudi-backed government.
胡塞武装的这一胜利对沙特阿拉伯造成了沉重打击，似乎也影响了沙特决策者的判断，促使他们考虑与胡塞武装重新陷入全面战争。
That Houthi triumph was a significant blow to Saudi Arabia, and it appears to have tipped the scales for Saudi decision makers, as they considered returning to all-out war with the Houthis.
机场袭击事件发生的时间尤为敏感。沙特当局计划在本月于利雅得举办多场重要的国际活动，包括王储一年一度的投资论坛，该论坛通常会吸引来自世界各地的亿万富翁和高管。分析人士称，胡塞武装在沙特机场造成人员伤亡已时隔多年。
The timing of the airport attacks were particularly sensitive. The Saudi authorities are planning to host several major international events in Riyadh this month, including the crown prince’s annual investment forum, which typically attracts billionaires and executives from around the world. It has been years since a Houthi strike killed anyone at a Saudi airport, analysts said.
