CNN News: 敘利亞發(fā)生化學(xué)襲擊事件

Our first story, there’s been an apparent chemical weapons attack in the Middle Eastern nation of Syria. We’ve been covering the country’s civil war for years. It started in 2011. The United Nations estimates that 400,000 Syrians have been killed and millions have fled their homes.

頭條新聞，是關(guān)于中東國家敘利亞受到化學(xué)武器攻擊。多年來，我們一直在報道敘利亞問題。敘利亞問題起于2011年。聯(lián)合國估計已經(jīng)有40萬的敘利亞平民死亡，數(shù)百萬人民逃離家園。

What made Thursday’s attack so horrible, even in this war-torn country, was that it reportedly involved a poisonous gas, according to multiple activist groups in the country.

是什么讓周四發(fā)生的攻擊如此恐怖，特別是在這個飽受戰(zhàn)爭摧殘的國家，據(jù)報道是毒氣，且涉及到該國數(shù)個激進組織。

Witnesses say it killed dozens of people, including families, though there have been different reports on exactly how many people died. Hundreds have been injured. Doctors say the victims had breathing problems, pale skin, sweating, narrow pupils, all systems of a chemical attack.

盡管對于死亡人數(shù)，不同的報道說法不一，但是目擊者表示，包括家庭成員在內(nèi)，有數(shù)十人死亡。數(shù)百人受傷。醫(yī)生表示，受害者都存在呼吸問題、皮膚慘白、盜汗、瞳孔狹窄、這些都是化學(xué)攻擊后發(fā)生的癥狀。

It happened in a western Syrian city that’s held by rebels who are fighting the government. Activist groups say the attack was carried by Syria’s government. It’s been blamed for previously using chemical weapons in the war.

這些化學(xué)攻擊發(fā)生在敘利亞西部的由敘利亞叛軍控制的一個城市。激進組織表示，這次襲擊事件是由敘利亞政府負責(zé)。而這歸咎于以前在戰(zhàn)爭中使用化學(xué)武器。

Syrian government forcers said yesterday, they categorically denied using chemical weapons in the area and that they held terrorist groups and their supporters responsible.

敘利亞政府軍隊昨日表示，他們斷然否認在該地區(qū)使用化學(xué)武器，而這次化學(xué)武器使用事件由恐怖分子及其支持者負責(zé)。

Leaders from all over the world gave enraged responses yesterday to the apparent chemical attack.

這次化學(xué)襲擊事件激怒了世界各國的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人。
