聯合國上星期警告 萬餘伊拉克人逃離摩蘇爾

The International Organization for Migration says more than 10,000 Iraqis have been displaced since the start of an operation to retake the northern city of Mosul from Islamic State militants.

國際移民組織說，從伊斯蘭國極端分子手中收復伊拉克北部城市摩蘇爾的戰役開始以來，已有一萬多伊拉克民衆流離失所。

The offensive, which involves Iraqi government troops, Kurdish fighters, Sunni tribesman and Shi'ite militias, began last week and has so far involved capturing town and villages surrounding Iraq's second largest city.

由伊拉克政府軍、庫爾德戰鬥人員、遜尼派部落人員和什葉派民兵參加的進攻上星期開始，目前已奪取了這座伊拉克第二大城市周邊的一些村鎮。

The United Nations warned last week that as many as 200,000 people could be displaced in the initial weeks of the fight for Mosul, and that humanitarian groups would initially be able to handle about 70,000 people in need of aid.

聯合國上星期警告，奪取摩蘇爾戰鬥最初幾個星期內，可能有高達20萬民衆流離失所，人道團體開始階段只能應對約7萬人的援助需求。

Iraq's displacement and migration ministry said Wednesday the number of displaced was increasing, and that on Tuesday there was a "big wave" of 3,300 people in what was considered the largest number of people fleeing since the Mosul operation began.

伊拉克的“流離與難民事務部”星期三表示，流離失所的人口數量不斷增加，星期二出現了摩蘇爾戰役開始以來數量最多的一次民衆逃離“浪潮”，人數多達3300人。

The United Nations said Tuesday it had preliminary reports of extrajudicial killings and summary executions by Islamic State fighters around Mosul, including the militants using civilians as human shields.

聯合國星期二表示，他們得到的初步報告顯示，伊斯蘭國戰鬥人員在摩蘇爾周圍進行非法處決和隨意處決，其中包括極端分子利用平民作爲人肉盾牌的情況。
