VOA双语新闻：Iraqi Kurds Concerned About Turkish Incursi

Turkey's military said they have killed 41 Kurdish rebels Monday for a total 153 rebels and 17 Turkish soldiers killed during fighting in northern Iraqi Kurdistan. Iraq's national security adviser 1 has expressed concern that Turkey's attacks in Iraq may lead to a clash with Iraq's Kurdish security forces.

土耳其军方说，他们星期一打死了41名库尔德族叛军，这把在伊拉克北部库尔德斯坦交战中死亡的库尔德叛军总数增加到153人，其间也有17名土耳其军人丧生。伊拉克的国家安全顾问表示担心说，土耳其在伊拉克发动的进攻可能引发土耳其军队与伊拉克的库尔德族安全部队之间的冲突。



A statement on Turkey's military website says the rebels were killed during the fourth day of clashes as Turkish artillery 2 pounded suspected Kurdish rebel hideouts inside Iraq.

发表在土耳其军方网站上的声明说，在冲突的第4天，土耳其炮兵轰击涉嫌为库尔德族叛军的藏身地点，打死41名叛军。



The Kurdish rebels from the Kurdistan Workers Party, the PKK, say their losses are much lower, though none of the figures can be independently verified.

属于库尔德工人党的库尔德叛军表示，他们的伤亡和损失要少得多。双方的统计数字都无法得到独立消息来源的证实。



Tensions are growing over Turkey's raid into Iraqi Kurdistan to root out the PKK.

土耳其进入伊拉克的库尔德斯坦清剿库尔德工人党的行动导致局面日益紧张。



Iraq's national security adviser Mowaffaq Al-Rubaie said Monday the longer the Turkish military stays in Iraq the more likely they are to clash with Iraqi security forces.

伊拉克国家安全顾问鲁巴伊星期一说，土耳其军队在伊拉克境内的时间越长，他们与伊拉克安全部队发生冲突的可能性就越大。



Iraqi Kurdistan's Prime Minister Nechirvan Barzani confirmed that Kurdish elite 3 security called Pashmirga last week forced a group of Turkish soldiers to return to their base.

伊拉克的库尔德地区政府总理巴尔尼证实，库尔德族的精锐安全部队上星期强行驱赶一些土耳其士兵返回自己的营地。



He says the Kurdish people are never in favor of war or making war with anyone, but if targeted or attacked, he says, they will defend themselves.

巴尔尼说：“库尔德族人从来就不好战，也不喜欢和任何人打仗，但是如果遭到袭击，他们会自卫。”



Turkish tanks and hundreds, perhaps thousands of soldiers, crossed into Iraqi Kurdistan after heavy shelling targeted at the PKK in Iraq. Iraqi leaders have condemned 4 the destruction of civilian 5 infrastructure 6 from Turkey's assault and called on Turkish forces to withdraw and for dialogue to resolve the conflict.

土耳其军方重炮轰击在伊拉克的库尔德工人党成员后，土耳其坦克以及成千上万的士兵越境进入伊拉克北部的库尔德斯坦。伊拉克领导人谴责土耳其发动的攻击摧毁了民用基本设施，并呼吁土耳其军队撤离，通过对话解决冲突。



On Monday several hundred students in Irbil, the capital of Iraqi Kurdistan, protested the Turkish raid. Demonstrators at the university of Kurdistan Hawler held up a banner asking, "where is the international community."

星期一，数百名学生在库尔德斯坦首府埃尔比勒举行示威抗议土耳其发动的攻击。库尔德斯坦霍勒大学的示威者高举旗帜，上面写著“国际社会在何方？”



Namo Abdullah is the organizer of the student protest.

这次学生抗议行动的组织者阿卜杜拉说：



"We want to pressure the EU to pressure on the U.S. Actually the U.S. is also guilty as much as Turkey, because the U.S. legitimizes Turkey, US allows Turkey to intervene in Iraqi territory," he said.

“我们要向欧盟施压，敦促他们向美国施加压力。实际上美国应该和土耳其一起承担罪责，因为美国让土耳其的行动合法化，美国允许土耳其人入侵伊拉克领土。”



Many countries, including the United States have designated the PKK a terrorist organization and support Turkey's right to defend itself, but they are also concerned the conflict may destabilize northern Iraq, and urged Turkey to respect the Iraq sovereignty and finish the operation as soon as possible.

美国在内的许多国家都把库尔德工人党指认为恐怖组织，并支持土耳其的自卫权利，但是他们也担心冲突可能扰乱伊拉克北部的局势。他们敦促土耳其尊重伊拉克的领土主权，尽快结束战事。
