Islamic militants 1 are on the move in northeast Nigeria. It’s rare footage of the group Boko Haram. Insurgents 2 filmed that there’re some cells, the target, the main military barracks in Maiduguri. 


伊斯兰激进分子正朝向东北方向的尼日利亚移动。这是对博科圣地的组织者来说是盼了很久的时机。叛乱分子称要在尼日利亚设立牢房,将主要兵力设立在迈杜古里。


There was a firefight with the Nigerian army, the Boko Haram managed to breach 3 the barracks. They then burst open the cells and set many suspected Islamic militants free. 


这和尼日利亚当地部队发生了枪火,博科圣地组织者策划袭击了军营,并打开牢房释放了大量伊斯兰可疑武装分子。


And that’s where the Boko Haram video ends. The Nigerian military says the attacks were successfully repelled 4 and many of the retreating Islamic fighters were killed by the air force and by ground troops in the city of Maiduguri. Vigilante groups killed many of those who escaped from the cell. We will never know exactly how many people die that day. Some hospital sources said they’ve received about 100 bodies, others said more than 500 people died.


关于博科圣地视频就是这样。尼日利亚军方称此次交火成功击退了激进分子,并且在迈杜古里利用空军和陆队力量击毙了大量撤退的伊斯兰激进分子。自警队也击毙了大量从牢房里逃出来的罪犯。人们已经不知道在那天到底死了多少人。从医院传来的数据称他们有的已经接收了100名伤员,有的说已经超过500人死亡。


Their elusive 5 leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi celebrated 6 the raid and pledged more violence. The Mandara Mountain,close to the border with Cameron, this footage was taken a few years ago that these days Boko Harams fighters had set up base in parts of this mountain range. 


激进分子唯一领导头目巴格达迪对此次袭击表示庆祝,并将策划更多的暴力事件。位于卡梅伦边境的曼达拉山已经被激进分子在此建立了基地。


I meet a cattle herder who recently fled the area due to the insecurity there. He said that last year he offered to guide the Nigerian army to Boko Haram hideouts in the mountains.


我曾经见过一个牧牛人因为这里不安全而逃离出去。他告诉我说,在去年他曾经向尼日利亚军方提供博科圣地在山上的藏身之地。


As soon as we began climbing up, Boko Harams started firing down on us. 


当我们爬到山上一定高度的时候,博科圣地成员便开始向我们射击。


They regroup, but he said the local chief ensured that the Islamic militants will meet on the mission to foil the whole operation. 


他们曾重组是因为当地主要头目为了确保伊斯兰激战分子能控制整个计划实施。


The soldiers all met in the village of Dreamy, and then suddenly a civilian 7 defense 8 force came to join us. But I could see that there’re Boko Haram members among that group. I pointed 9 them out to the soldiers.


所有士兵都聚集到了Dreamy村庄里,然后突然有一组平民自卫队加入了我们,但是我能看出来里面有博科圣地的人,我将他们指了出来。


For how do you know they are Boko Haram?


你怎么知道他们是博科圣地的人呢?


We all lived in the same area. I know their faces. I grew up with them. My younger brother is even a Boko Harams commander.


我们住在一个地方,我认识他们长什么样。我跟他们是一块长大的,我有一个哥哥还是博科圣地的指挥官。


Islamist militants clearly get good intelligence for I got learnt from a young woman who escaped from captivity 10.


我在一个从监狱里逃出来的年轻女子口中得知,伊斯兰激进分子已经得到了可靠的情报。


Sometimes people would tell them that the army was coming and I would seem happy thinking I will be freed. Then Boko Harma hided in the mountain cave, others run. When they were in the cave they were safe and nothing could happen to them.


有些时候一些人会告诉他们军队快来了,这时我就会感到高兴,因为我可能就会被释放。然而博科圣地成员躲藏在山洞里,一些人就逃跑了。他们躲在山洞里的时候军队是无能为力的。


To stop these attacks the army will have to flush the Islamic militants out the mountain hideouts. But with Boko Haram members enmeshed in the communities across northeastern Nigeria, winning this war, it is a daunting 11 task.


为了阻止战争的再次爆发,尼日利亚军队必须把伊斯兰激进分子从山洞里赶出来。由于博科圣地成员一直暗藏活跃在尼日利亚东北部,所以打赢这场战争也是一项艰巨的任务。

Islamic militants are on the move in northeast Nigeria. It’s rare footage of the group Boko Haram. Insurgents filmed that there’re some cells, the target, the main military barracks in Maiduguri. 


There was a firefight with the Nigerian army, the Boko Haram managed to breach the barracks. They then burst open the cells and set many suspected Islamic militants free. 


And that’s where the Boko Haram video ends. The Nigerian military says the attacks were successfully repelled and many of the retreating Islamic fighters were killed by the air force and by ground troops in the city of Maiduguri. Vigilante groups killed many of those who escaped from the cell. We will never know exactly how many people die that day.
