埃及议会在周一的会议上决定推迟投票,该会议紧随周日举行的类似会议之后,据官方运营的日报《阿赫巴尔·埃尔亚姆》报道。议会也已休会周日的会议,将进一步审议推迟至周一。
Egypt’s parliament decided to postpone the vote during Monday’s session, which followed a similar meeting held on Sunday, reported state-run daily Akhbar el-Yom. The parliament had also adjourned Sunday’s session, deferring further deliberations until Monday.
讨论应埃及总统阿卜杜勒-法塔赫·塞西的要求而进行,他周六表示,如果沙特阿拉伯请求援助,开罗将采取一切必要措施防御沙特阿拉伯。沙特阿拉伯最近遭到也门胡塞武装的袭击。
The discussions came at the request of Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi, who said on Saturday that Cairo would take all necessary measures to defend Saudi Arabia if it requests assistance. Saudi Arabia has recently come under attack by Yemen's Houthi group.
自胡塞武装于2014年夺取首都萨那及多个省份以来,也门一直陷入冲突,这促使由沙特领导的联盟于次年干预,以支持国际公认的政府。一项由联合国斡旋的2022年4月停火协议此前一直带来多年的相对平静,直到最近。
Yemen has been engulfed in conflict since the Houthis seized the capital Sanaa and several provinces in 2014, prompting a Saudi-led coalition to intervene the following year in support of the internationally recognized government. A UN-brokered truce in April 2022 had until recently brought years of relative calm.
