Turkey late on Wednesday launched air strikes against Kurdish targets in northern Iraq and Syria, hours after Ankara said a terrorist attack on a state aerospace company killed five people and wounded nearly two dozen.
土耳其周三晚些时候对伊拉克北部和叙利亚境内的库尔德目标发动了空袭,此前数小时,安卡拉方面称一家国营航空航天公司遭到恐怖袭击,造成5人死亡,20多人受伤。
Turkish air forces struck 32 targets associated with the Kurdistan Workers’ party (PKK), a separatist group that has fought a decades-long insurgency in Turkey, along with “other terrorist elements”, the defence ministry said.
土耳其国防部表示,土耳其空军打击了32个与库尔德斯坦工人党(PKK)有关的目标以及“其他恐怖分子”,库尔德斯坦工人党是一个分离主义组织,在土耳其进行了长达数十年的叛乱活动。
The military operations came after an attack on a sprawling Turkish Aerospace Industries’ (TAI) industrial campus on the outskirts of Ankara, Turkey’s capital.
此次军事行动是在土耳其首都安卡拉郊区庞大的土耳其航空航天工业公司(TAI)的工业园遭到袭击之后发生的。
Interior minister Ali Yerlikaya said it was “very likely” that the PKK, which is recognised as a terrorist group by the US, EU and others, carried out the assault. Assailants had struck the TAI site with bombs and gunfire, according to Turkey’s state Anadolu news service.
内政部长阿里•耶尔利卡亚(Ali Yerlikaya)说,“很有可能”是库尔德工人党发动了这次袭击。据土耳其官媒阿纳多卢新闻社报道,袭击者用炸弹和枪弹袭击了土耳其航空航天工业公司。库尔德工人党被美国、欧盟和其他国家认定为恐怖组织。
