Officials reported on Thursday that more than 500 individuals are presumed to have perished following accounts of two vessels transporting members of Myanmars persecuted Rohingya minority having capsized in the Bay of Bengal.

官员于周四报告称,据称两艘运载缅甸受迫害的罗兴亚少数民族成员的船只已在孟加拉湾倾覆,据此推测已有逾500人遇难。

According to preliminary information, the two vessels departed Myanmars western state of Rakhine in late June, predominantly carrying Rohingya passengersincluding some who had journeyed from refugee camps across the border in Bangladeshas per a joint statement issued by the International Organization for Migration and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

根据初步信息两艘船只于六月下旬离开缅甸西部的若开邦主要搭载罗兴亚乘客——其中包括一些孟加拉国边境对面的难民营出发的人——这是根据国际移民组织和联合国难民署联合发布的声明所述。

One vessel, believed to have been conveying approximately 250 individuals, abruptly ceased all communications subsequent to its departure.

一艘据信载有约250人的船只,在启航后突然中断了所有通讯

A second craft, reportedly transporting 280 persons, is presumed to have foundered off the coast of Myanmar's Ayeyarwady region on July 8.

另一艘据报载有280人的船只,据推测已于7月8日在缅甸伊洛瓦底省沿海沉没。

The agencies articulated that, “While the incidents and casualty figures have yet to be officially confirmed, UNHCR and IOM are gravely concerned by the potentially devastating loss of life.”

各机构表示:“尽管事件及伤亡数字尚未得到官方确认,但UNHCR和IOM可能发生的惨重生命损失深感忧虑。”

The Rohingya, who in recent years have fled both Myanmar and Bangladeshs squalid refugee camps by the thousands, typically eschew such maritime voyages at this juncture of the year, when monsoons are prevalent and sea conditions are particularly perilous.

近年来,成千上万的罗兴亚人逃离缅甸和孟加拉国肮脏的难民营,他们通常会在一年中季风盛行海况尤为凶险的这个时节避免此类海上航行

The UNHCR and IOM noted this in their statement, asserting that the recent torrential rainfall and inundation across the region would have rendered such journeys especially hazardous.

UNHCR和IOM在其声明中指出了这一点声称近期该地区的暴雨和洪水使得此类旅程尤为危险

Approximately 1.2 million stateless Rohingya, predominantly Muslim, remain confined within severely overcrowded refugee camps in Bangladesh, having fled successive waves of violence perpetrated by Myanmars security forces.

大约120万无国籍的罗兴亚人主要为穆斯林仍被限制在孟加拉国严重拥挤的难民营中,他们因缅甸安全部队实施的连续暴力浪潮逃离家园

The refugees are precluded from any viable means of safely repatriating to Myanmar, where the junta responsible for the slaughter of thousands of Rohingya in 2017an atrocity the United States formally designated as genocidecontinues to exercise dominion over their homeland.

这些难民被剥夺了任何安全遣返缅甸的可行途径,而在缅甸,对2017年屠杀数千名罗兴亚人负有责任的军政府——美国正式将其定性为种族灭绝暴行——仍在其故土上行使统治权

Those Rohingya still residing in Myanmar endure draconian restrictions, with a substantial number confined to internment camps.

仍居住在缅甸的罗兴亚人承受着严苛的限制其中相当数量的人被拘禁于拘留营中

The drastic curtailment of foreign aid by the United States and other donor nations has precipitated ration reductions within Bangladeshs refugee camps, whilst the ruling military junta and an ethnic armed group in Rakhine State are locked in a struggle for territorial dominance.

美国及其他捐助国大幅削减对外援助已导致孟加拉国难民营内配给量骤减与此同时执政的军政府若开邦的一支民族武装正陷入领土主导权的争夺之中。

The escalating unrest has precipitated a surge in the number of Rohingya undertaking the perilous maritime passage to Malaysia aboard dilapidated vessels.

不断升级的动荡局势已导致更多罗兴亚人乘坐破旧船只冒险经由海路前往马来西亚

Countless individuals, including infants, children, and pregnant women, have perished in the process.

无数人包括婴儿、儿童和孕妇在此过程中丧生

Local maritime authorities have frequently abandoned the Rohingya at sea, often disregarding reports of vessels in distress.

当地海事当局屡次将罗兴亚人遗弃在海上,往往对船只遇险的报告置之不理。

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) declared on Thursday that the most recent potential maritime catastrophe underscores the persistent absence of sustainable resolutions for the Rohingya, and implored the international community to extend assistance to those confined within Bangladeshs camps.

国际移民组织(IOM)联合国难民署(UNHCR)于周四声明最近一次潜在的海上灾难凸显了针对罗兴亚人长期缺乏可持续解决方案的现状,并恳请国际社会向被困于孟加拉国难民营中的人们提供援助

The agencies asserted that more robust regional and international interventions are imperative to avert further fatalities along one of the world's most perilous maritime routes, necessitating enhanced search and rescue operations, expanded access to asylum and protective mechanisms, and concerted action against smuggling and trafficking syndicates.

各机构宣称为阻止这条全球最危险的海上航线之一上再添亡魂更强有力的区域及国际干预措施势在必行这要求加强搜救行动扩大庇护与保护机制的准入,并对走私及贩运集团采取协同行动

In 2025, over 6,500 Rohingya fled by sea, with nearly 900 reported dead or missing, rendering it the deadliest year on record for those attempting to escape by boat; the UNHCR noted that this figure constitutes the highest mortality rate of any major maritime route for refugees and migrants globally.

2025年逾6500名罗兴亚人经由海路逃离其中近900人据报死亡或失踪,使得该年度成为有记录以来试图乘船出逃者死亡人数最多的一年;UNHCR指出,这一数字构成了全球难民与移民主要海上航线中的最高死亡率。
