根据路透社看到的一份报告摘要，联合国航空机构发现黎巴嫩主要机场缺乏有效认证，这给美国总统唐纳德·特朗普恢复美国与贝鲁特直飞航班的计划带来挫折。
The United Nations aviation agency has found Lebanon's main airport lacks valid certification, according to a report summary seen by Reuters, in a setback to US President Donald Trump's move to revive direct US-Beirut flights.
特朗普在7月宣布了这一消息，并上个月签署了一项命令，要求美国政府允许美国与黎巴嫩之间开通直飞航班，此举推翻了1985年TWA 847航班被劫持并被迫降落在贝鲁特后持续四十年的停飞。
Trump made the announcement in July and signed an order last month for the US government to allow direct flights from the US to Lebanon, reversing a four-decade-long suspension after TWA Flight 847 was hijacked and forced to land in Beirut in 1985.
虽然美国联邦航空管理局和运输安全管理局在航班恢复前仍需进行安全审查，但黎巴嫩驻华盛顿大使馆称特朗普的命令是“恢复黎巴嫩与美国之间直航服务的重要第一步”。然而，联合国国际民用航空组织（ICAO）7月对黎巴嫩的技术援助任务发现，贝鲁特-拉菲克·哈里里国际机场及航空系统存在不足。
While the US Federal Aviation Administration and the Transportation Security Administration would still need to conduct safety reviews before flights could resume, the Lebanese embassy in Washington called Trump's order "a significant first step toward restoring direct air service between Lebanon and the United States." However, the UN's International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) technical assistance mission to Lebanon in July identified shortcomings at Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport and in the aviation system.
两位熟悉此事的资深行业官员预计，这些发现将推迟航班服务的恢复，并使特朗普在与黎巴嫩总统约瑟夫·奥恩会晤后签署的命令的后续工作复杂化。华盛顿一直支持奥恩，同时推动伊朗支持的真主党解除武装。
The findings, which two senior industry officials familiar with the matter expect to delay the resumption of service, complicate efforts to follow up on an order Trump signed after meeting Lebanese President Joseph Aoun. Washington has backed Aoun as it pushes for Iran-backed Hezbollah to be disarmed.
该机构在应黎巴嫩民用航空管理局（LCAA）的要求而编写的内部报告于9月发送给黎巴嫩。
The agency sent its internal report, made at the request of the Lebanese Civil Aviation Authority (LCAA), to Lebanon in September.
根据ICAO报告的摘要，贝鲁特机场的消防资源适用于单通道飞机，但不适用于长途飞行所用的双通道客机。报告称，该机场还缺乏应急计划，其有条件认证已过期。
Beirut airport's firefighting resources are equipped for single-aisle planes, but not twin-aisle jetliners used for long-haul flights, according to a summary of ICAO's report. The airport also lacks an emergency plan, and its conditional certification has expired, the report said.
摘要称：“这是一件严重且时间紧迫的事务，必须立即解决，以维持机场的运营状态。”
"This is a serious and time-critical matter that must be addressed immediately to preserve the airport's operational status," the summary said.
该报告还发现，黎巴嫩民用航空局（LCAA）缺乏合格的检查员来监督航空交通管制执照，也没有建立起一个完全成立、运作且独立的飞机事故调查机构，其职责界定不明确。
The report also found the Lebanese regulator LCAA lacks qualified inspectors to oversee air traffic control licensing, and has no fully established, operational and independent aircraft accident investigation authority with clearly defined roles.
上个月一次为期两天的研讨会上，这些担忧已被提出，会上来自国际民航组织、黎巴嫩政府、美国联邦航空管理局及其他机构的官员讨论了恢复直达航空服务的努力，据行业官员和路透社看到的会议议程称。
Such concerns were flagged during a two-day workshop last month where officials from ICAO, Lebanon's government, the FAA and others discussed efforts to revive direct air service, according to the industry officials and an agenda of the meeting seen by Reuters.
黎巴嫩公共工程和交通部长法耶兹·拉萨姆尼表示，黎巴嫩正在采取措施解决这些担忧，机场认证工作已于周六开始。LCAA预计将在未来几天发出有条件认证。
Lebanon's Minister of Public Works and Transport Fayez Rasamny said Lebanon was taking steps to address the concerns, with efforts to certify the airport starting on Saturday. The LCAA expects to issue conditional certification in the coming days.
“报告中强调的大部分问题，LCAA此前已识别出来，纠正措施也已启动，”拉萨姆尼在一份声明中表示，并补充说，进展因战争而延误。以色列军队仍驻扎在黎巴嫩南部，并继续发动袭击，尽管以色列和黎巴嫩在六月签署了一项由美国斡旋的框架协议。真主党并非该协议的缔约方，并已拒绝该协议。
"Most of the issues highlighted in the report had already been identified by the LCAA, and corrective action had already been initiated," Rasamny said in a statement, adding that progress had been delayed by war. Israeli forces remain in southern Lebanon and have continued strikes despite a US-brokered framework agreement signed in June between Israel and Lebanon. Hezbollah, which was not party to the deal, has rejected it.
美国联邦航空管理局和国际民航组织拒绝置评。美国国务院建议美国公民不要前往黎巴嫩，理由是安全问题。该部表示，美国联邦航空管理局建议在黎巴嫩领空运行的航班保持谨慎，原因是叙利亚境内或周边军事活动加剧，包括来自叙利亚领土的失控远程地对空导弹的风险。
The FAA and ICAO declined to comment. The US State Department advises Americans not to travel to Lebanon given safety concerns. It said the FAA advises caution for flights operating in Lebanese airspace due to heightened military activity in or around Syria, including the risks of errant long-range surface-to-air missiles originating from Syrian territory.
自二月美国和以色列对伊朗的打击引发地区敌对行动以来，外国航空公司因导弹和无人机威胁，已避开中东大片领空，沙特阿拉伯的一座机场是最新遭到袭击的地点。
Foreign airlines have avoided large swathes of Middle East airspace because of missile and drone threats since US and Israeli strikes on Iran in February triggered regional hostilities, with an airport in Saudi Arabia the latest site to come under attack.
黎巴嫩及其国家航空公司在国内因保持空中导航服务和航班而受到赞誉，这有助于支撑一个依赖旅游业和汇款的经济。
Lebanon and its national carrier have been praised domestically for maintaining air navigation services and flights, helping to prop up an economy that depends on tourism and remittances.
三名美国航空公司官员在匿名条件下对路透社表示，他们认为任何美国航空公司都不会在近期恢复飞往黎巴嫩的航班，原因是安全担忧。
Three US airline officials told Reuters on the condition of anonymity they do not think any American carriers would resume flights to Lebanon in the near term, citing security concerns.
贝鲁特与美国之间没有直飞航班，但黎巴嫩与一些欧洲大城市之间有此类服务。
While there are no direct flights between Beirut and the United States, such service exists between Lebanon and some large European cities.
欧洲航空安全署表示，已知悉民航组织的报告，并补充称，欧盟航空公司在开通航线前必须自行评估机场的安全性和运营准备情况。
The European Union Aviation Safety Agency said it was aware of the ICAO report and added that EU airlines must conduct their own assessment of an airport's safety and operational readiness before launching services.
