Tjibbe Joustra, head of the Dutch Safety Board presents the board’s final report of the investigation into the Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 crash last year. |
The Dutch Safety Board led the investigation. Its chairman, Tjibbe Joustra, spoke to family members and media. He said the plane was hit by pieces from a missile explosion. He said the missile was fired from the ground. He also said the plane broke apart while still in the air.
荷蘭安全委員會領(lǐng)導(dǎo)此次調(diào)查。其主席Tjibbe Joustra 向遇難者家庭成員及媒體發(fā)表講話。他表示該架飛機(jī)被導(dǎo)彈的爆炸碎片所擊中。他說該導(dǎo)彈是從地面發(fā)射，還表示飛機(jī)解體時仍在空中飛行。
He said Ukraine was responsible for not closing its airspace. Russian-backed rebels and Ukrainian forces were fighting below the flight path.
他表示，烏克蘭要為沒有關(guān)閉其航空線路負(fù)責(zé)。當(dāng)時俄羅斯支持的叛軍及烏克蘭部隊正在航空線路下進(jìn)行戰(zhàn)斗。
"Nobody considered the possibility that civil aircraft at cruising altitude was at risk," he said.
他說：“沒有人考慮到民航機(jī)處于巡航高度是有風(fēng)險的這一可能性。”
Mr. Joustra said nations in armed conflict should put more effort into the safety of their airspace. He said flight operators should be transparent about the flight path they choose.
Joustra先生表示，處于武裝沖突中的國家應(yīng)該把更多的精力投入到其領(lǐng)空安全。他說飛機(jī)運(yùn)營商應(yīng)該將他們選擇的飛行路線透明公開。
The majority of passengers were Dutch. But citizens of Australia, Belgium, Malaysia and Ukraine were also on board. Representatives from those countries were part of the investigation. The plane was flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
大多數(shù)乘客是荷蘭人。但是，飛機(jī)上也有澳大利亞、比利時、馬來西亞和烏克蘭公民。來自這些國家的代表為調(diào)查人員的一部分。這架飛機(jī)是從阿姆斯特丹飛往吉隆坡。
The investigators did not assign blame for the crash. Western nations have accused Russia-backed rebels of mistaking the plane for a military aircraft and shooting it down. Visit the website www.chinavoa.com to get more information!
研究人員并沒有對墜機(jī)表示怪罪。西方國家一直指責(zé)俄羅斯支持的叛軍誤認(rèn)為該飛機(jī)是軍用飛機(jī)并將其擊落。
Russiahas denied responsibility. The government's missile manufacturer also investigated the incident. It says the missile was an old model no longer used by the Russian military. It also says the missile was launched from an area under Ukrainian government control.
俄羅斯拒絕承擔(dān)責(zé)任。政府導(dǎo)彈制造商還調(diào)查了該事件。俄羅斯聲稱，該導(dǎo)彈為舊型號，俄羅斯軍方已不再使用。它還表示，導(dǎo)彈是從烏克蘭政府所控制的地區(qū)發(fā)射。
