周日，北爱尔兰因一场极具争议的游行被数千名抗议者阻挡在波塔当镇外，导致局势高度紧张。
Tensions ran high in Northern Ireland on Sunday after a contentious parade was blocked from making its way through the town of Portadown by thousands of protesters.
这是近30年来首次允许“奥兰治兄弟会”游行队伍通过加瓦吉路（Garvaghy Road）。
在1998年《贝尔法斯特协议》基本结束北爱尔兰流血冲突之前，该路段曾是当地社区之间臭名昭著的冲突爆发点。
It is the first time in nearly 30 years that the Orange Order parade has been allowed to go down the Garvaghy Road, which had been a notorious flashpoint between the communities in the years before the Good Friday Agreement of 1998 largely ended the bloodshed in Northern Ireland.
