Iraqis on edge as wave of car bombs kill dozens across country
连环汽车炸弹使伊拉克人忧心忡忡
Police throughout Iraq look for clues after multiple car bombings kill or injure dozens. In Basra, police say two car bombs exploded simultaneously, wounding at least 17. One local shop owner saw both blasts go off.
连续几起汽车炸弹袭击造成数十人伤亡,伊拉克全国的警察都在寻找线索。在巴士拉,警方表示,两枚汽车炸弹同时爆炸,造成至少17人受伤。一名当地商店店主看到两起炸弹爆炸。
(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) OWNER OF SHOP AT BLAST SCENE, KADHIM FALEH, SAYING: "A blast took place here and one minute later a second car bomb went off here. A man was wounded here [points] and another one there and a third one was lying under tires."
爆炸现场一名商店店主KADHIM FALEH:“一起爆炸首先在这里发生,一分钟之后,这里又发生第二起汽车炸弹爆炸事件。一名男子在这里受伤,另外一人在那边,还有一名伤者躺在轮胎下。”
The attack was part of a wave of car bomb attacks that ripped through busy streets and markets in mostly Shi'ite provinces. The deadliest attack took place in Hilla, south of Baghdad, where two more car bombs blew up in quick succession, killing at least five people and injuring many more. It is not immediately clear who is behind the attacks, which appear to have been coordinated. Sunni Islamists and other insurgents, including al-Qaeda, have been regaining ground this year. So far violence in Iraq has killed more than 6,000 people this year.
这起袭击是最近发生在大部分什叶派穆斯林居住省份繁忙的街道和市场一系列汽车炸弹袭击的其中一起。最致命的袭击发生在巴格达南部的希拉,两枚汽车炸弹先后爆炸,造成至少5人死亡,多人受伤。目前还不清楚袭击的幕后主使,似乎是提前组织好的。逊尼派伊斯兰分子和其他反叛分子,包括基地组织,今年来逐渐得势。目前为止,伊拉克的暴力今年已经造成超过6,000人死亡。
