　　Pakistani officials say security forces have killed at least 460 al-Qaida-linked militants 1 in a tribal 2 region bordering Afghanistan. The week-long clashes also have left 22 troops dead and forced more than 200,000 people to flee to safer areas.

巴基斯坦有关官员说，安全部队在同阿富汗交界地带的一个部落地区打死至少460名和基地组织有关系的激进分子。双方的交战持续了一个星期，导致22名巴基斯坦军人阵亡。交战还迫使20多万人逃到相对安全的地方。

The fighting is taking place in the volatile 3 northwestern Bajaur tribal region, which is regarded as a stronghold for Taliban and al-Qaida militants.

交战发生在巴基斯坦西北部动荡的巴焦尔部落地区，这里被视为塔利班和基地组织激进分子的据点。

自从冲突在一星期前爆发以来，巴基斯坦军队的武装直升机一直在对暴乱分子活动地点进行无情的打击。有关官员说，包括几名塔利班高级指挥官在内的数百名激进分子被击毙，此外，还有许多激进分子受伤。

The head of the federal Interior Ministry 7, Rehman Malik, says that as many as 3,000 armed militants are present in the area.

巴基斯坦内政部长马利克说，目前这一地区还有3000名武装激进分子。

Mr. Malik told a news conference in Peshawar Friday that the majority of the militants are foreigners, including nationals from Afghanistan, Central Asia and some Arab countries. He says the government will not surrender, and the security operation will continue until these extremists are wiped out.

马利克星期五在白沙瓦举行的一个新闻发布会上说，绝大部分激进分子来自外国，包括阿富汗、中亚国家和一些阿拉伯国家。他说，巴基斯坦政府不会向激进分子低头，安全行动会持续下去，直到把极端分子消灭为止。

The Bajaur tribal region is adjacent to Afghanistan's eastern province of Kunar, where U.S-led coalition 11 forces are fighting al-Qaida and Taliban militants. A spokesman for the coalition forces in Afghanistan told VOA they closely coordinate 12 anti-terror operations with their Pakistani counterparts, but are not involved in the current fighting in Pakistan.
