世界卫生组织(WHO)周四表示,由于8月6日至10月11日之间的军事升级,也门有1282人死亡、5891人受伤。

The World Health Organization (WHO) said Thursday that 1,282 people had been killed and 5,891 injured in Yemen as a result of the military escalation between Aug. 6 and Oct. 11.

这些数字被载入该联合国机构关于也门冲突升级的第七份报告,报告指出,在此期间的伤亡总数为7173人,包括死亡和受伤人员。

The figures were included in the UN agency’s seventh report on the escalation of the conflict in Yemen, which put the total number of casualties during the period at 7,173, including those killed and injured.

报告称,死亡人数为1282人,占所有伤亡的17.9%,而受伤人数为5891人。

According to the report, the death toll stood at 1,282, accounting for 17.9% of all casualties, while 5,891 people were injured.

报告还记录了10月3日至11日期间新增2007人伤亡,其中包括323人死亡和1684人受伤。报告指出,日均伤亡人数升至约223人,而此前时期为114人。

The report also recorded 2,007 additional casualties between Oct. 3 and 11, including 323 deaths and 1,684 injuries. The daily average rose to around 223 people killed or injured, up from 114 in the preceding period, according to the report.

此次升级正值也门国际公认政府本月早些时候发动的“也门黎明”军事行动之际,该行动旨在收复胡塞武装控制的地区,包括首都萨那。

The escalation comes amid the Dawn of Yemen military operation launched by Yemen’s internationally recognized government earlier this month to retake Houthi-held areas, including the national capital, Sanaa.

该行动得到沙特领导的联盟支持,导致多条战线上的战斗激烈化,特别是在塔伊兹,政府军和胡塞武装一直在争夺战略要地和补给线的控制权。

The offensive, backed by a Saudi-led coalition, has intensified fighting on several fronts, particularly in Taiz, where government forces and the Houthis have battled for control of strategic positions and supply routes.

自2014年胡塞武装夺取萨那以来,也门一直陷入冲突,迫使国际公认政府离开首都。沙特领导的联盟于2015年军事介入以支持政府。

Yemen has been engulfed in conflict since the Houthis seized Sanaa in 2014, forcing the internationally recognized government from the capital. A Saudi-led coalition intervened militarily in support of the government in 2015.
