First to East Asia. Hong Kong is a special administrative 1 region of China, but it was part of Great Britain between 1842 and 1997. And that’s why during the Second World War in 1941, Japanese troops invaded Hong Kong after their nation had declared war on Britain and the U.S. The U.S. Army Air Corps 2 began bombing the territory a year later. Dozens of air raids struck Hong Kong.


东亚。香港是中国的一个特别行政区,但它在1842年至1997年间是英国的一部分。这就是为什么在1941年的第二次世界大战期间,日本军队入侵香港,因为他们的国家已经向英国和美国宣战。一年后,美国陆军航空队开始轰炸香港。数十起空袭袭击了香港。


And just like we’ve seen in parts of Germany, unexpected World War II bombs continue to be unearthed 3 in Hong Kong decades later. Two of them have been found in the past week and at least one of the bombs was confirmed to be an American design.


就像我们在德国的部分地区看到的那样,在几十年后的香港,人们还在不断地发现第二次世界大战的炸弹。两枚炸弹在过去一周被发现,至少有一枚炸弹被确认为是美国制作。


Just because these devices are 75 years old doesn’t mean they’re no longer dangerous. Evacuations were made, roads and businesses were closed and some ferry services had to be stopped while experts worked around the clock to defuse the bombs. Both were the same type but one of them had a badly damaged fuse, making it more challenging to defuse.


仅仅因为这些设备已经75年了,并不意味着它们不再危险。人员被疏散,道路和商店被关闭,一些轮渡服务被迫停止,而专家们则昼夜不停地拆除炸弹。两者都是同一类型,但其中一个有严重损坏的保险丝,使其任务更具有挑战性。


Hong Kong’s explosive disposable unit finished the job on Wednesday morning. CNN’s Ivan Watson was there.


香港的炸弹拆除单位于周三上午完成了这项工作。CNN的伊万·沃森为您报道。
