利雅得,10月15日——由沙特阿拉伯牵头组成的也门军事联盟周四称,随着与伊朗结盟的胡塞武装与沙特之间的冲突日益激烈,胡塞武装试图袭击沙特的数十个机场、港口及石油设施。
RIYADH, Oct 15 - The Saudi-led military coalition in Yemen said on Thursday that the country's Houthis had attempted to attack dozens of Saudi airports, ports and oil facilities, as fighting between the Iran-aligned group and Saudi Arabia intensified.
过去一周,作为对沙特支持也门政府军重新参与内战的回应,胡塞武装持续向沙特境内的关键目标发射弹道导弹和无人机。随着冲突升级,该联盟在最新声明中着重强调了沙特民用基础设施所面临的风险。
The Houthis have been firing ballistic missiles and drones at key Saudi sites for a week, in response to the kingdom's backing of government forces in Yemen's renewed civil war. The coalition's latest statement highlighted the risk to Saudi civilian infrastructure as the conflict escalated.
联盟发言人图尔基·马利基在新闻发布会上表示,本月胡塞武装对利雅得的哈利德国王国际机场发动了20次袭击,导致17人死亡、333人受伤。作为沙特主要的国际航空枢纽之一,该机场正是联盟所称的一系列袭击的目标之一。
Coalition spokesperson Turki al-Maliki said at a press conference that the Houthis had launched 20 attacks on King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh this month, killing 17 people and wounding 333 others. The airport, one of Saudi Arabia's main international aviation hubs, was among the civilian infrastructure targeted in what the coalition described as a series of attacks.
联盟还称,胡塞武装对位于沙特西南部、靠近也门边境的阿巴机场发动的袭击则造成3人死亡、28人受伤。
The coalition also said Houthi attacks on Abha airport, in southwestern Saudi Arabia near the Yemeni border, had killed three people and wounded 28.
马利基指出,在“地区势力”的协助下,胡塞武装获得了先进的军事技术,包括弹道导弹、无人机以及装载炸药的快速攻击艇。
Maliki said the Houthis had acquired advanced military technology with the help of "regional actors," including ballistic missiles, drones and explosive-laden fast boats.
该发言人还透露,联盟已在也门山区摧毁了127处武器储存设施及发射平台。
The spokesperson also said the coalition had destroyed 127 weapons storage facilities and launch platforms in Yemen's mountainous areas.
他呼吁胡塞武装立即停止针对平民及民用基础设施的袭击行动,并强调该组织应仔细研读联盟的声明,领会其深层含义。联盟发表声明后不久,胡塞武装军事发言人便宣称沙特领空及机场不再安全,再次向各航空公司发出警告,不过此次警告并未涉及麦加和麦地那这两座圣城的上空。
He called on the Houthis to immediately halt operations targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure, and said the group should read the coalition's statement carefully and "between the lines." Shortly after the coalition's statement, the Houthi military spokesperson said Saudi airspace and airports were unsafe, renewing a warning to airlines while excluding airspace over the holy cities of Mecca and Medina.
自2014年胡塞武装占领首都萨那以来,也门便深陷冲突之中,这促使沙特阿拉伯于次年发起军事干预。在联合国的斡旋下,双方于2022年达成停火协议,大规模交战随之基本停止;即便该协议在六个月后失效,实际上也依然维持着停火状态。然而随着地区局势日益紧张,将此次停火转化为持久政治解决方案的努力也陷入了僵局。
Yemen has been mired in conflict since the Houthis seized the capital Sanaa in 2014, prompting a Saudi-led military intervention the following year. The UN-brokered truce in 2022 largely halted major fighting, and a de facto truce held even after it expired six months later. But efforts to turn it into a lasting political settlement have stalled as regional tensions have intensified.
