据知情人士透露,英国正在向乌克兰提供更多“Storm Shadow”远程巡航导弹,以便乌克兰能够在冬季来临之前破坏俄罗斯针对其民用基础设施的军事行动。

The UK is sending Ukraine more long-range Storm Shadow missiles so it can disrupt Russian military operations targeting its civilian infrastructure before the winter, people familiar with the matter said.

据这些人士透露,英国制造的这些巡航导弹的补给问题是在乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基周三访问伦敦期间,由英国首相安迪·伯纳姆与泽连斯基讨论的。这些人士要求匿名,因为他们所讨论的武器供应计划尚未公开宣布。

The resupply of the British-made cruise missiles was discussed by Prime Minister Andy Burnham and President Volodymyr Zelenskyy when the Ukrainian leader visited London on Wednesday, according to the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity about a weapons consignment that hasn’t been publicly announced.

在上周美国总统唐纳德·特朗普与俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京达成协议、允许俄罗斯柴油进入全球市场之后,英国及其他乌克兰盟友继续加大对这个饱受战争摧残的国家的大力支持。泽连斯基在周三的公开讲话中表示,最近发生的几件事情让他感到被背叛——包括上述柴油贸易协议、特朗普宣布的能源领域停火协议,以及基辅在获取SpaceX卫星技术方面遇到的困难。

The UK and other allies of Ukraine are shoring up support for the war-torn nation after US President Donald Trump last week announced a deal with President Vladimir Putin to release Russian diesel to the global market. Zelenskyy on Wednesday told the show that he felt betrayed by events in recent days including the diesel deal, Trump’s announcement of an energy ceasefire, and issues with Kyiv’s military access to SpaceX’s satellite technology.

自2023年以来,英国一直向乌克兰提供“Storm Shadow”导弹,不过最初这些导弹的使用仅限于乌克兰境内的战区。到了2024年底,乌克兰军队开始扩大这些导弹的使用范围,并首次将它们用于攻击俄罗斯境内的军事目标。

The UK has been providing Ukraine with storm shadows since 2023, though their use was initially restricted to the war-zone within Ukrainian territory. In late 2024, Ukrainian forces expanded their use, firing the British cruise missiles at military targets inside Russia for the first time.

据这些人士称,英国认为乌克兰使用远程武器打击参与攻击平民及民用基础设施的俄罗斯目标属于防御性行动。他们还表示,最近几周俄罗斯加快了喷气式无人机和导弹的生产速度,以加剧对乌克兰的攻击;因此,确保基辅能够有效应对这些威胁至关重要。

The UK considers Ukraine’s use of long-range weapons to target Russian sites involved in attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure to be defensive, according to the people. Russia has ramped up production of jet-powered drones and missiles in recent weeks in order to escalate its attacks on Ukraine, and it’s important Kyiv is able to counter those efforts, they said.

特朗普政府已要求基辅停止对俄罗斯炼油厂的无人机袭击,但这些袭击在周四重新开始——原因是俄罗斯持续攻击乌克兰的能源设施。这反映了英美两国政府立场之间的分歧:英国认为乌克兰不应停止对俄罗斯的打击,而俄罗斯则拒绝采取同样的行动。

The Trump administration has told Kyiv to stop drone attacks on Russian oil refineries, though they resumed on Thursday in response to continuing Russian attacks on Ukraine’s energy plants. In a sign of the tensions between British and American government positions, the people said that the UK does not believe Ukraine should halt its strikes on Russia while Moscow refuses to do the same.

英国政府拒绝对此发表评论。该国也未透露在战争期间向乌克兰提供了多少枚“Storm Shadow”导弹,也未定期公布相关武器转让情况。

The UK government declined to comment. It hasn’t said how many Storm Shadow missiles it has given Ukraine during the war, and doesn’t regularly announce transfers.

“Storm Shadow”导弹由MBDA公司制造,已被证明在突破俄罗斯防空系统并打击军事及工业目标方面具有极高的效率。这种精确制导的空中发射导弹射程超过250公里(155英里),由于它们以高速贴近地面飞行,因此极难被拦截。

Storm Shadows, made by manufacturer MBDA, have proved highly effective at penetrating Russian air defenses and hitting military and industrial targets. The precision-guided, air-launched missiles have a range of more than 250 kilometers (155 miles) and are difficult to defend against because they fly close to the terrain at high speeds.

今年8月,伯纳姆(Burnham)宣布英国将向基辅提供远程导弹的制造图纸,以便乌克兰能够在当地自行生产这些导弹;不过这一计划预计需要一段时间才能真正实现。

In August, Burnham announced that the UK would share blueprints for long-range missiles with Kyiv so it could assemble them in Ukraine, although that was expected to take some time to come to fruition.

英国还在研发低成本、长射程的武器,这些武器无需依赖美国的零部件或技术支持,乌克兰可以直接使用。

Britain is also developing low-cost long-range weapons that could be deployed by Ukraine that don’t depend on the US for components and data.
