土耳其機場死亡人數上升 總理呼籲全國團結
Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim issued a call for national unity early Wednesday, as his country faced a rising death toll from a suicide attack that killed at least 36 people at Istanbul's Ataturk international airport.
土耳其伊斯坦布爾的阿塔圖爾克國際機場自殺襲擊造成的死亡人數仍在上升之際，比納利·耶爾德勒姆總理星期三凌晨發出全國團結的呼籲。這次襲擊導致至少36人死亡。
Yildirim, flanked by members of his cabinet, said three suicide bombers arrived by taxi Tuesday evening at the busy airport and opened fire with automatic weapons, shooting randomly at bystanders before detonating explosives as police closed in. The attack wounded 147 people.
耶爾德勒姆總理在內閣成員的簇擁下表示，三名自殺炸彈手星期二晚乘坐出租車抵達繁忙的機場，用自動武器任意掃射人羣，隨後在警察逼近之際引爆炸彈。這次襲擊還造成147人受傷。
VOA's Dorian Jones in Istanbul said one of the bombers detonated his explosives outside the international arrival terminal. That area is usually packed with people waiting for transportation. The two other attackers are believed to have tried to enter the terminal, which is protected by heavily armed police and X-ray machines.
美國之音駐伊斯坦布爾記者瓊斯說，其中一名炸彈手在國際機場的抵達航站樓外引爆炸彈。那個地點通常擠滿候車的旅客。另外兩名自殺手據信試圖進入有武裝警察和X光檢測機保護的航站樓。
There was no immediate claim of responsibility. But Yildirim said early evidence pointed to an attack by Islamic State extremists, whom he identified by the Arabic pejorative Daesh. He called the attack "cowardly" and vowed his country would continue to press its fight against extremism.
目前還沒有人聲稱對爆炸負責。但是耶爾德勒姆總理表示，初步證據指向伊斯蘭國極端分子，他用了一個阿拉伯有貶損意味的詞“達伊沙”來稱呼他們。耶爾德勒姆指責這起攻擊是“懦夫行爲”，並誓言土耳其將繼續打擊極端主義。
