利比亚战机空袭重要石油港口

Libyan warplanes launched new air strikes Thursday against the key eastern oil port of Brega, a day after rebels drove forces loyal to leader Moammar Gadhafi from the city.

利比亚战机星期四再次对东部重要的石油港口布雷加发动空袭。一天前，反对派把忠于利比亚领导人卡扎菲的部队赶出了这座城市。

Witnesses say the strikes from Gadhafi loyalists targeted Brega's airport, near the oil terminal. Oil officials say Libyan oil production has been "halved" due to the nationwide unrest.

目击者说，效忠卡扎菲的武装人员发起的袭击目标是布雷加靠近石油码头的机场。石油官员说，全国性动乱导致利比亚石油产量“减半”。

On Wednesday, opposition forces repelled powerful ground and air assaults as Gadhafi loyalists launched their first offensive against opposition-controlled eastern Libya.

星期三，效忠卡扎菲的部队对反对派控制的利比亚东部发动了第一次攻势，反对派力量击退了强大的地面和空中进攻。

Witnesses said pro-Gadhafi forces in a convoy of more than 50 armed vehicles stormed Brega, which lies on the Gulf of Sirte about 800 kilometers east of the capital, Tripoli. They quickly seized the city's oil installations, airport and port facilities.

目击者说，亲卡扎菲的军队乘坐50多辆装甲车冲入布雷加。布雷加位于苏尔特湾，在利比亚首都的黎波里以东大约800公里。他们迅速抢占城内的石油设施、机场和港口设施。

News of the attack galvanized citizen militias in the nearby cities of Ajdabiya and Benghazi, who raced to the front lines armed with AK-47s, rocket-propelled grenades and aging anti-tank weapons.

袭击的消息激怒了附近城市埃贾比耶和班加西的民兵。他们带着AK-47冲锋枪、火箭筒和陈旧的反坦克武器冲到前线。

Opposition forces counterattacked by midafternoon, driving Gadhafi loyalists from the city. Doctors reported at least 12 dead in the fighting.

到中午时分，反对派力量进行反击，将效忠卡扎菲的部队赶出城外。有医生报告说，冲突中至少有12人死亡。
