葉門民眾驚慌南逃，胡塞武裝持續攻擊

亞丁，9月15日（路透）— 無人機攻擊造成彈片四射，擊中穆罕默德・艾亞許（Muhammad Aiyash）妻子的胸口並奪走她的性命後，艾亞許帶著3名子女，沒有攜帶任何家當，逃到葉門南部城市亞丁（Aden）一處新設的臨時流離失所者營地。ADEN, Sept 15 (Reuters) - After a drone strike sent shrapnel flying into his wife's chest, killing her, Muhammad Aiyash and his three children fled with no belongings to a new makeshift camp for the displaced in the southern Yemeni city of Aden.

葉門的胡塞武裝（Houthis）沿該國紅海沿岸發動閃電攻勢，擊潰沙烏地支持的政府軍，使這個與伊朗結盟的武裝組織得以奪取葉門另一部分領土，並加強控制曼德海峽（Bab el-Mandeb Strait）。這處海峽是全球貨物與包括石油在內大宗商品最重要的航運路線之一，恐慌也因此蔓延。Panic has spread as Yemen's Houthis trounced Saudi-backed government forces in a lightning offensive along the country's Red Sea coast that has enabled the Iran-aligned militants to seize another part of the country and tighten their grip over the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, one of the world's most important shipping routes for goods and commodities, including oil.

60多歲的艾亞許說：「我向上帝發誓，我們連一粒麵粉都沒有。我們沒有床墊，也沒有衣服。」他把家留在古老港口城市摩卡（Mocha），在葉門最新一波危機中，絕望地尋找棲身之所。"By God, we do not possess even a single grain of flour. We have no mattresses and no clothes," said Aiyash, who is in his 60s and left his home behind in the ancient port city of Mocha in a desperate search for shelter in Yemen's latest crisis.

聯合國難民署週二表示，葉門再度爆發衝突已造成超過10萬人在國內流離失所，另有數千人經海路逃往吉布地。The U.N. refugee agency said on Tuesday that more than 100,000 people had been internally displaced by the renewed conflict in Yemen, and that thousands more have fled by sea to Djibouti.

胡塞武裝是山區戰士，經常穿著涼鞋，並喜愛咀嚼具刺激性的綠葉「卡特草」這項全國性消遣。多年來，他們已崛起成為一支擁有數萬人的軍事力量。The Houthis, mountain fighters who often wear sandals and enjoy the national pastime of chewing the stimulant green leaf qat, have emerged over the years into a military force of tens of thousands.

在最新一輪戰鬥中，他們已將控制範圍從葉門北部、人口最多的地區，擴大到西部的城市、城鎮與島嶼。In the latest round of fighting they have extended their control from the northern, most populous areas of Yemen, to cities and towns and islands in the west.

他們也在伊朗戰爭中開闢新的作戰區域；此前荷姆茲海峽實際上已遭封閉，如今全球能源市場壓力進一步升高。They have also opened a new area of combat in the Iran war, increasing pressure on global energy markets following the earlier effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

胡塞武裝攻擊了沙烏地阿拉伯境內目標，迫使沙國暫時關閉至關重要的東西輸油管線；這條管線原本是取代經由荷姆茲海峽航運的替代方案。The Houthis have attacked targets inside Saudi Arabia, which has been forced to temporarily close the vital East-West pipeline that had served as an alternative to shipping through Hormuz.

「戰爭突然來了」'THE WAR CAME SUDDENLY'

在亞丁營地，許多家庭坐在帳篷旁，照料羊隻，並試著搭建簡陋的遮蔽處。孩子們緊跟在父母身邊，大人則搬運著家當。At the Aden camp, families sat beside tents, tending sheep and trying to assemble rudimentary shelters. Children stayed close to their parents as adults carried belongings.

一名流離失所男子陶菲克・哈里吉（Tawfiq al-Kharij）坐在帳篷外的親友身旁，展示腿部遭彈片擊中的傷勢。他說，逃出來時除了身上穿的衣服，什麼都沒有。One displaced man, Tawfiq al-Kharij, showed a shrapnel injury to his leg as he sat with relatives outside a tent. He said he escaped with nothing but the clothes he was wearing.

哈里吉說：「我們原本在上帝庇佑下平靜生活，然後戰爭突然來了。有人死了，也有人活了下來。」"We were living peacefully in God's care, then the war came suddenly,” Kharij said. "Some died, and others survived."

聯合國難民署週二表示，人道救援進入當地仍是「一大挑戰」。UNHCR said on Tuesday that humanitarian access remained "a major challenge".

該機構在聲明中表示：「治安不穩、道路受損、電信中斷以及行動限制，都影響了救援作業。」"Insecurity, damaged roads, telecommunications disruptions and movement restrictions are affecting operations," the agency said in a statement.

哈蒂嘉・庫達夫（Khadija Kudaf）和她的孩子們走了3天，才抵達港口城市亞丁。她說：「我們甚至沒有帶孩子們的衣服。」Khadija Kudaf and her children had to walk for three days to get to Aden, a port city. "We didn't even bring the children's clothes," she said.

葉門人對苦難再熟悉不過。Yemenis are all too familiar with suffering.

葉門是阿拉伯世界最貧困的國家。自胡塞武裝於2014年奪取首都沙那（Sanaa）以來，葉門一直深陷衝突；這促使沙烏地領導的聯軍在隔年介入內戰，而這場內戰造成全球最大的人道危機之一。內戰期間，胡塞武裝承受了沙烏地領導聯軍多年的猛烈轟炸。The Arab world's most impoverished country has been mired in conflict since the Houthis ⁠seized the capital, Sanaa, in 2014, prompting a Saudi-led military intervention the following year in a civil war that led to one of the world's biggest humanitarian crises. The Houthis withstood years of heavy Saudi-led bombing during the civil war.

聯合國斡旋的停火協議於2022年達成，儘管6個月後失效，仍大致讓主要戰事停止；但隨著區域緊張局勢升高，將停火轉化為持久政治解決方案的努力已陷入停滯。A U.N.-brokered truce in 2022 largely halted major fighting, despite expiring six months later, but efforts to turn it into a lasting political settlement have stalled as regional tensions have intensified.

在亞丁西北方的塔伊茲省（Taiz），另一處新搭建的營地已開始接收逃離戰火的人們。營地裡，婦女和兒童用塑膠桶提水，其他人則洗衣服，並聚集在帳篷周圍。In Taiz province, northwest of Aden, another newly erected camp has begun to receive people fleeing fighting. Women and children carried water in jerrycans at the camp, while others washed clothes and gathered around tents.

當地一名流離失所婦女塔格里德・薩利姆（Taghreed Salem）說，各家庭正努力尋找基本物資。A displaced woman there, Taghreed Salem, said families were struggling to find basic supplies.

薩利姆說：「我們是為了躲避戰爭、砲彈、飛彈，以及空襲的飛機而逃到這裡。我們是新近流離失所的人。我們要水，我們希望從他們那裡得到任何東西。」“We arrived fleeing from the war, from the shells, from the missiles, from the aircraft that strike,” Salem said. “We came as newly displaced people. We want water, we want anything from them,” she said.
