加拿大军方在周六晚上被迫将部队空投到该国最繁忙的基地之一,此前实弹演习期间发生燃气爆炸引发大火,导致至少七人死亡。

The Canadian military was forced to parachute troops into one of the country’s busiest bases on Saturday night after a gas explosion during a live-fire exercise triggered a blaze that left at least seven people dead.

戏剧性视频显示,加拿大皇家空军(RCAF)成员在阿尔伯塔省加拿大军队韦恩赖特基地(Canadian Forces Base Wainwright)降落伞着陆,此次悲剧被一位医生形容为“每15到25年才发生一次的灾难。”全球新闻(Global News)高级记者杰夫·森普尔(Jeff Semple)在X平台发布的帖子中写道:“十几名加拿大武装部队(CAF)人员实际上是降落伞降落在韦恩赖特,前往当地卫生中心处理附近加拿大军队基地的爆炸和火灾。”帖子附有行动影像。

Dramatic video shows members of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) landing by parachute at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright in Albert following the tragedy, which one physician described as a “one in every 15 to 25-year disaster.”“More than a dozen CAF personnel literally parachuting into Wainwright, arriving at the local health centre to respond to the explosion and fire at the nearby Canadian Forces Base,” Jeff Semple, Senior Correspondent for Global News, wrote on X in a post sharing footage of the operation.

画面显示,RCAF成员在成功降落于韦恩赖特基地后收起降落伞,该基地位于埃德蒙顿以东约130英里处。

全球新闻援引多名军方消息人士报道称,实弹训练演习中燃气管道被意外击中引发野火,导致至少七人恐怕死亡,另有多人受伤。

At least seven people are feared dead and many more injured after a gas line was accidentally struck during a live-fire training exercise triggering a wildfire, Global News reported, citing multiple military sources.

埃德蒙顿官方启动了“橙色代码”应对方案,以帮助处理从基地送来的大量患者,同时呼吁公众避免前往阿尔伯塔大学医院急诊室,加拿大广播公司(CBC)如此报道。

Officials called a “code orange” response protocol in Edmonton to help care for the high number of patients coming from the base, while the general public was urged to avoid the University of Alberta Hospital emergency department, CBC reported.

埃德蒙顿皇家亚历山大医院急诊科医生沃伦· thirsk(Dr. Warren Thirsk)对CBC表示:“目前患者人数超过了我们任何人想要统计的数字。这是一场灾难。这是每15到25年才发生一次的灾难。”

“It is more patients than any of us want to count right now. It’s a disaster. It’s a one in every 15 to 25-year disaster,” Dr. Warren Thirsk, an emergency department physician at Edmonton’s Royal Alexandra Hospital, told CBC.

韦恩赖特市长表示,他担心这起悲剧是其社区曾经历过的最大规模伤亡事件。

The mayor of Wainwright said he feared the tragedy was the largest mass casualty event his community had ever seen.

阿尔伯塔省省长丹妮尔·史密斯(Danielle Smith)表示,此次事件影响了“许多我们勇敢的军事人员”,而加拿大总理马克·卡尼(Mark Carney)也称此次火灾“严重”。截至目前,死者身份尚未公布,当局仍在继续联系死者亲属。

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said the incident had affected “many of our brave military personnel,” while Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney also described the fire as “serious.”None of the dead have been named yet as authorities continue to contact the next of kin.
