更多爆炸声在沙特首都被听到,怀疑再次落也门胡塞武装身上。沙特与伊朗支持的武装组织之间的冲突持续升级,双方互相发动攻击。

More explosions have been heard in the Saudi capital, with suspicions once again falling on the Houthi rebels from Yemen. The conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Iran-backed militant group continues to escalate, with both sides trading attacks.

这导致特朗普政府面临质疑,该政府看来越来越陷入一场它不知道如何退出的与伊朗的战争之中。沙特一些最敏感设施冒出的烟雾景象震动了该地区和全球市场。

It has led to questions for the Trump administration, which looks increasingly mired in a war with Iran that it does not know how to exit. The sight of smoke rising from some of Saudi Arabia's most sensitive facilities has rattled the region and global markets.

胡塞武装声称袭击了利雅得的哈立德国王国际机场以及东部城市达赫兰的石油设施,该城市是沙特国家石油公司总部所在地。他们还表示击中了利雅得的一座炼油厂。

The Houthis claimed attacks against Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport as well as oil facilities in the eastern city of Dhahran, home to the headquarters of Saudi Arabia's national oil company. They also said they struck a refinery in Riyadh.

胡塞武装称这些袭击是对“背叛的沙特侵略”的报复,该侵略针对的是胡塞武装控制的也门首都萨那及其他地区。

The Houthis said the strikes were retaliation for "treacherous Saudi aggression" against the rebel-held Yemeni capital of Sanaa and other areas.

最近的袭击凸显了沙特拦截胡塞武装导弹和无人机的困难,以及王国施压美国等盟友以获取更多支持的努力。

Recent attacks have highlighted Saudi Arabia's struggle to intercept Houthi missiles and drones - as well as the kingdom's efforts to press allies like the US for more support.

专家表示,试图击落所有导弹和无人机是不可能的——尤其是现在该国据报道拦截弹药正在耗尽。

Experts say that trying to shoot down all the missiles and drones is impossible - especially now that the country is reportedly running low on interceptors.

胡塞武装拥有庞大的武器库,能够打击1000英里以外的目标,有些弹头还能在飞行中途改变方向。与此同时,沙特武装力量一直在打击胡塞武装控制的也门地区。

The Houthis have a large arsenal capable of striking targets well over 1,000 miles away, with some warheads able to change direction mid-flight. Meanwhile, Saudi forces have been striking areas of Yemen that are held by the Houthis.

沙特与胡塞武装的冲突今年因反叛者将萨那机场袭击事件归咎于沙特而重新点燃。

The conflict between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis reignited this year after the rebels blamed the Saudis for a strike on the airport in Sanaa.

周三,胡塞武装运营的卫生部表示,在靠近拉伊萨港的一个油库遭到空袭事件中,有两人死伤两人。卫生部将责任归咎于沙特阿拉伯。沙特领导的联盟也对萨那的一个油库发动了袭击。

On Wednesday, the Houthi-run health ministry said two people were killed and two others wounded in an airstrike on an oil facility near Ras Isa port. The ministry blamed Saudi Arabia. The Saudi-led coalition also attacked an oil facility in Sanaa.
