哈立德·卡齐哈 内罗毕,肯尼亚 —— 提格雷地区新的联邦支持看守政府一名官员周五敦促叛军战士放下武器,此前几小时,一名叛军指挥官在叛军失去埃塞俄比亚北部地区首府梅克勒后,呼吁继续抵抗。这些投降与战斗的呼吁,是在叛军失去对梅克勒控制权近三周后发出的。在该市一家医院,两名受伤男子称,本周早些时候,一架无人机袭击在他们将山羊装上卡车时,造成四名平民死亡。
KHALED KAZZIHA NAIROBI, Kenya — An official in Tigray’s new federal-backed administration urged rebel fighters to lay down their weapons Friday, hours after a rebel commander called for continued resistance despite losing the northern Ethiopian region’s capital The calls to surrender and fight on came nearly three weeks after rebels lost control of Mekelle At a hospital in the city, two wounded men said a drone strike killed four civilians as they loaded goats onto a truck earlier this week.
看守政府政治与公众动员首席执行官雷达·哈勒福姆·沃尔德塞拉西表示,叛军部队正在瓦解,并敦促战士们参加解除武装和重返社会计划。
Redae Halefom Woldeselassie, the caretaker administration’s chief executive for political and public mobilization, said rebel forces were collapsing and urged fighters to enter a disarmament and reintegration program.
“现在不是清算恩怨的时候,我呼吁你们回家,继续平民生活,”他在梅克勒表示。
“This is not the time for settling scores, I call upon you to return to your homes and continue your civilian lives,” he said in Mekelle.
他否定了叛军收复该市的前景,并将冲突描绘为服务于一小撮领导人,而非提格雷人民的利益。
He dismissed the prospect of the rebels retaking the city and portrayed the conflict as serving a small group of leaders rather than the people of Tigray.
几小时前,菲塞哈·基达努中将在电视广播中被介绍为提格雷军队指挥官,誓言扭转近期的军事挫折。
Hours earlier, Lt. Gen. Fisseha Kidanu, identified in a television broadcast as commander of the Tigray army, pledged to reverse recent military setbacks.
“全区各地的地方民兵——以及所有加入抵抗的志愿者——预计将与敌人交战,”他在周四晚间通过一家名为“提格雷广播媒体”的新叛军电视台表示。他的所在地未被披露。
“Local militias across the region — alongside all volunteers joining the resistance — are expected to engage the enemy,” he said Thursday night on Tigray Broadcast Media, a new rebel television station. His location was not disclosed.
尽管对手在无人机和重型武器上占优,菲塞哈仍敦促袭击政府控制的阵地。提格雷人民解放阵线(TPLF)也声称已对政府军造成重大伤亡。美联社无法独立核实这些说法。
Fisseha urged attacks on government-held positions despite his opponents’ advantages in drones and heavy weapons. The Tigray People’s Liberation Front, or TPLF, has also claimed to have inflicted heavy losses on government forces. The Associated Press could not independently verify those claims.
政府军盟友部队在提格雷人民解放阵线(TPLF)撤出后于10月4日进入梅克勒。埃塞俄比亚政府随后成立了为期六个月的看守政府,承诺恢复服务、帮助流离失所者返乡并为选举做准备。
Government-allied fighters entered Mekelle on Oct. 4 after the TPLF withdrew. Ethiopia’s government subsequently established a six-month caretaker administration promising to restore services, help displaced people return and prepare for elections.
政府的盟友包括提格雷和平部队,该部队由提格雷人民解放阵线武装翼的前成员组成——提格雷武装内部的这一分裂使得重燃的冲突更加复杂。雷达伊表示,埃塞俄比亚军队和盟友部队正在开展联合安全行动,包括防止抢劫掠夺的措施。他承诺为流离失所居民返乡做准备,但未给出时间表。
The government’s allies include the Tigray Peace Force, comprising former members of the TPLF’s armed wing — a division within Tigrayan forces that has complicated the renewed conflict Redae said Ethiopian troops and allied forces were conducting joint security operations, including measures to prevent looting. He promised preparations for displaced residents to return but gave no timetable.
总理阿比·艾哈迈德周一在接受埃塞俄比亚广播公司采访时指责提格雷人民解放阵线获取武器、强行征募年轻人,而非根据2022年11月《比勒陀利亚和平协议》解除武装。他表示,政府已尽其所能落实该协议。
Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed speaking Monday to the Ethiopian Broadcasting Corporation, accused the TPLF of acquiring weapons and forcibly recruiting young people instead of disarming under the November 2022 Pretoria peace agreement. He said his government had done everything within its capacity to implement the accord.
伤者描述无人机袭击 在梅克勒的艾德尔医院,22岁的卢埃尔·贝尔哈努和20岁的塞缪尔·贝莱表示,他们周二晚间约9点30分在距城市以南约80公里(49英里)的菲纳里瓦往卡车上装山羊时遭到袭击。
Wounded men describe drone strike At Ayder Hospital in Mekelle, Luel Berhanu, 22, and Samuel Belay, 20, said they were loading goats onto a truck in Finariwa, about 80 kilometers (49 miles) south of the city, when a strike hit around 9:30 p.m. Tuesday.
他们称有四名平民死亡、约六人受伤。美联社无法独立核实伤亡情况,也无法确定袭击发动方。
They said four civilians were killed and about six people wounded. The AP could not independently verify the casualties or establish who carried out the attack.
卢埃尔说,事发前卡车大灯亮着,一架无人机在头顶盘旋,随后发生爆炸。他称爆炸导致其右眼和右臂重伤,右眼失明。塞缪尔说,他们当时是作为日薪工装运牲畜。
Luel said the truck’s headlights were on and a drone was hovering overhead shortly before the explosion. He said the blast severely injured his right eye and right arm, leaving him unable to see through that eye. Samuel said they were working as day laborers loading the animals.
医院画面显示,卢埃尔右眼裹着沾血的绷带,肩部和手臂也包扎着纱布。塞缪尔侧卧着,手臂插着输液管。
Hospital footage showed Luel with a bloodstained bandage covering his right eye and dressings around his shoulder and arm. Samuel lay on his side with an intravenous line attached to his arm.
一名接受美联社采访的目击者报告称,当天早些时候,一支被认定为“阿盖乌·申戈”的武装力量在该地区有过活动,该民兵组织此前曾在邻近的阿姆哈拉地区与提格雷武装并肩作战。卢埃尔表示,叛军部队在空袭发生前几小时曾在该地区,但袭击发生时已无人在场。
A witness interviewed by the AP reported movements earlier that day by fighters identified as Agew Shengo, a militia that has previously fought alongside Tigrayan forces in neighboring Amhara region. Luel said rebel forces had been in the area several hours before the strike but none were present when it occurred.
失去梅克勒可能不会终结战争,重燃的战火已实际上粉碎了结束2020至2022年那场毁灭性战争的《比勒陀利亚协议》。
Losing Mekelle may not end the war renewed fighting has effectively shattered the Pretoria agreement, which ended the devastating 2020-2022 war.
国际危机组织之角地区副主任马格努斯·泰勒上周对美联社表示,控制城镇和道路未必能保障农村地区的安全,提格雷武装在上一轮战争期间曾在农村地区重整旗鼓。
Magnus Taylor, deputy Horn of Africa director at the International Crisis Group, told the AP last week that controlling towns and roads would not necessarily secure rural areas where Tigrayan fighters regrouped during the previous war.
他说:“我们不应想当然地认为,仅仅因为提格雷人民解放阵线失去了梅克勒,这场冲突就彻底结束了。”
“We shouldn’t imagine that this conflict is completely over just because the TPLF has lost Mekelle,” he said.
