米兰 —— 据天空电视台24小时新闻频道报道，由于卡车司机针对伊朗战争推高柴油价格发起为期一周的抗议，周二意大利南部城市那不勒斯部分超市货架和加油站油泵出现空置。
MILAN — Some supermarket shelves and gas station pumps were empty in the southern city of Naples on Tuesday due to a week-long protest by truck drivers against the high cost of diesel driven up by the Iran war.
抗议者周一封锁了那不勒斯附近超市配送仓库的鲜食及其他货物装卸作业。卡车司机加入了随着战争扰乱经济而在欧洲蔓延的示威行列。
Protesters blocked the loading and unloading of fresh food and other goods at supermarket distribution warehouses near Naples on Monday, Sky TG24 reported. The truckers are adding their voices to demonstrations that have spread across Europe as the war disrupts economies.
该市一家超市在空荡荡的货架上贴出告示，为“因卡车司机罢工，部分产品可能暂时缺货或供应品种减少”致歉。
One supermarket in the city posted a note on empty shelves apologizing that “some products may be temporarily unavailable or available in a reduced range” due to the truckers’ strike.
西西里岛也出现鲜意面、包装奶酪和肉类以及生鲜农产品短缺，部分原因是民众囤积抢购。南部卡拉布里亚和普利亚大区同样传出超市货架部分空置的情况。
Shortages of fresh pasta, packaged cheeses and meats as well as produce have been reported in Sicily, partly due to stockpiling by shoppers. Partially empty supermarket shelves were also reported in the southern regions of Calabria and Puglia.
交通部长马泰奥·萨尔维尼周二与全国卡车运输协会会面，帮助司机应对困境，承诺提供税收抵免以抵消柴油价格飙升，并拨款用于现代化卡车运输收费。
Transport Minister Matteo Salvini met Tuesday with national trucking associations to help the truckers cope, promising tax credits to offset soaring diesel prices and funds to modernize trucking fees.
尽管政府支持遏制油价，柴油价格仍比伊朗战争前高出约三分之一。临时柴油税减免政策本月早些时候已到期。
Diesel prices are roughly a third higher than before the Iran war, despite government-backed efforts to curb pump prices. A temporary diesel tax discount expired earlier this month.

The president of the Unatras group of trucking associations, Paolo Uggè, said Salvini promised that payments would begin Wednesday and pledged legislation to address operating costs, the news agency LaPresse reported. Another meeting was set for next week.
