《纽约时报》2026年8月27日周三,尼泊尔努瓦科特县特里苏里发生突发山洪。 Navesh Chitrakar/Reuters A giant torrent of mud, water and ice that began high in the Himalayas tore a devastating path through a mountain valley on the border between Nepal and Tibet on Wednesday, smashing buildings and sweeping away fleeing people caught by surprise by its speed and destructive force.周三,一场发源于喜马拉雅山脉高处,由泥石、水和冰组成的巨大洪流在尼泊尔和西藏交界的山谷中肆虐,造成毁灭性破坏,摧毁了建筑物,逃生人群因这股洪流的速度和破坏力而措手不及,被卷入其中。At least 160 people were killed and hundreds more were missing after the flood, which snapped bridges into pieces and pulled multistory structures off their foundations. The deluge also engulfed dozens of men, women and children who were overtaken as they tried to run. The death toll was expected to rise.Initial assessments by geologists and glaciologists indicated that an enormous chunk of ice — possibly a half-mile wide — had snapped off a glacier at an altitude of 17,000 feet and tumbled thousands of feet into a river valley below. Scientists studying the disaster said the impact registered as the equivalent of a 5.2-magnitude earthquake and crushed the ice into a fast-moving mix of water, ice and rock that pulverized everything in its path.洪流造成至少160人死亡,另有数百人失踪。它将桥梁冲得支离破碎,并将多层建筑从地基上连根拔起,吞噬了数十名在逃生时被追上的男女老少。预计死亡人数还会上升。地质学家和冰川学家的初步评估表明,一块巨大的冰块——可能有大约800米宽——从约5000米高的冰川上断裂,翻滚着坠落数千米,落入下方的河谷中。研究这场灾难的科学家表示,撞击产生的威力相当于5.2级地震,将冰块碾碎成由水、冰和岩石组成的快速移动的混合物,摧毁了沿途的一切。Officials in Nepal reported 157 deaths. Chinese officials reported only three deaths in the Tibet region of China, but the Chinese state news agency Xinhua said there had been “significant” casualties at the Gyirong port of entry, at the border with Nepal.尼泊尔官员报告有157人死亡。中国官员报告中国西藏地区仅有三人死亡,但中国国家通讯社新华社表示,在尼泊尔边境的吉隆口岸出现了“重大”伤亡。Surveillance footage circulating on social media and verified by The New York Times shows crowds running up a road near the port before torrents of water and thick clouds engulf the parking lot and surrounding buildings, destroying the area.在社交媒体上流传并经《纽约时报》核实的监控录像显示,人群沿着口岸附近的一条道路奔跑,随后汹涌的洪水和浓密的云雾吞噬了停车场及周围的建筑物,摧毁了这个地区。“The bottom looks like a bomb exploded — it’s just deposits from the broken-up glacier,” said Daniel Shugar, a geologist at the University of Calgary in Canada who studied satellite imagery to analyze what happened. He said other factors may have also contributed to the landslide.“底部看起来就像炸弹爆炸了一样——那全是破碎冰川的沉积物,”加拿大卡尔加里大学研究卫星图像以分析事发情况的地质学家丹尼尔·舒格说。他表示,其他因素可能也促成了这场山体滑坡。As many as 391 tourists, including 291 foreigners, had been reported missing in Nepal, the country’s tourism board said in a statement. They included more than 100 people on a pilgrimage from India, a dozen Britons and at least three Americans. Citizens from Australia, the Netherlands, Malaysia and South Africa were also among the missing.尼泊尔旅游局在一份声明中表示,尼泊尔据报有多达391名游客失踪,其中包括291名外国人。这其中包括100多名来自印度的朝圣者、十几名英国人和至少三名美国人。失踪者中还有来自澳大利亚、荷兰、马来西亚和南非的公民。Thousands of people live in riverside settlements downstream from the flooding, including along the Bhote Koshi and Trishuli rivers in the Rasuwa district. The authorities have not estimated the number of people missing and the extent of damage but said that bridges, schools and hydropower projects had been swept away.数以千计的民众居住在洪水下游的河畔聚居地,包括拉苏瓦区的波特科西河和特里苏里河沿岸。当局尚未估计失踪人数和受损程度,但表示桥梁、学校和水电项目已被冲走。Chinese state media reports ‘significant’ casualties at a port on the border with Nepal.中国官方媒体报道称,与尼泊尔接壤的一个口岸出现“重大”伤亡。While the Nepali authorities reported that dozens of people had been killed and hundreds of people were missing on Wednesday after devastating flooding, there was less information about casualties on the Chinese side of the border, in the territory of Tibet.尼泊尔当局报告称,在周三毁灭性的洪水过后,已有数十人死亡、数百人失踪,但关于边境中国一侧西藏境内的伤亡情况,目前尚无更多信息。The Chinese state news agency Xinhua reported that there had been “significant” casualties at the Gyirong Port in China, where footage released by state media shows surging waters overwhelming buildings, taking out trees and rendering roads impassable.中国国家通讯社新华社报道称,中国吉隆口岸出现了“重大”伤亡,官方媒体发布的视频显示,汹涌的洪水淹没了建筑物,冲毁了树木,导致道路无法通行。China’s leader, Xi Jinping, ordered local authorities to “make every effort” to search for and rescue missing residents. Mr. Xi issued a statement emphasizing the need for flood prevention, and other members of the Politburo’s Standing Committee in Beijing made similar remarks.中国领导人习近平下令地方当局“千方百计”搜救失踪居民。习近平发表指示,强调了防汛工作的必要性,中央政治局常委的其他成员也发表了类似讲话。Drone footage broadcast on China’s state television news showed buildings buried at Gyirong port, where goods are traded across the international border.中国国家电视新闻播放的无人机画面显示,在进行跨国贸易的吉隆口岸,建筑物被掩埋。Surveillance footage circulating on social media and verified by The New York Times shows the moment a landslide rips through the port. In one video, crowds of people are running up a road near the port. Seconds later, torrents of water and thick clouds engulf the parking lot and surrounding buildings, destroying the area.在社交媒体上流传并经《纽约时报》核实的监控录像,显示了泥石流滑坡席卷该口岸的瞬间。在一段视频中,人群正沿着口岸附近的一条道路奔跑。几秒钟后,汹涌的洪水和浓密的云雾吞噬了停车场及周围的建筑物,摧毁了该地区。Another surveillance video shows the moment the landslide crashes through the building that serves as the port of entry, as dozens of people run in the other direction. Debris flies as successive waves flood the port, filling the camera’s field of vision.另一段监控视频显示,当泥石流冲破作为入境口岸的建筑物那一刻,数十人朝相反方向奔跑。随着一波接一波的泥石流淹没口岸,碎片四处飞溅,充满了摄像头的整个视野。Most of those at the port were likely local Tibetans, migrant workers from other parts of China or traders from Nepal. Gyirong, a rural border town, is within the Tibetan Autonomous Region, an area that the Chinese government keeps under tight control as part of efforts to quash any dissent over its control of Tibet.口岸里的大多数人可能是当地藏民、来自中国其他地区的农民工或来自尼泊尔的商人。吉隆是一个边境乡村小镇,位于西藏自治区内,中国政府对该地区实施严密管控,以此压制任何针对其对西藏管辖权的异议。The Chinese authorities invested in the port as part of efforts to incorporate Tibet into China’s signature Belt and Road infrastructure initiative through trade with Nepal and India.中国当局对该口岸进行投资,旨在通过与尼泊尔和印度的贸易将西藏纳入中国标志性的“一带一路”基础设施倡议。Here’s what else we’re covering:以下是我们的其他相关报道:• Initial Assessment: A preliminary analysis of satellite imagery indicates that an ice avalanche set off the flooding, said Simon Cook, a glaciologist at the University of Dundee in Scotland who is part of a team of scientists studying the disaster. According to their initial assessment, he said, a large chunk of ice broke off from a high-altitude glacier and tumbled thousands of feet toward the Bhotekoshi River in Nepal, releasing vast amounts of energy that pulverized the ice into a significant volume of flood water.· 初步评估:苏格兰邓迪大学的冰川学家、参与研究这场灾难的科学家团队成员西蒙·库克表示,对卫星图像的初步分析表明,是冰崩引发了这场洪水。他说,根据他们的初步评估,一大块冰从高海拔冰川上脱离,向尼泊尔的波特科西河滚落数千英尺,释放出巨大的能量,将冰块粉碎成大量的洪水。• Rescue Effort: Security teams led by the Nepali Army have been carrying out rescue operations. The army has mobilized 12 helicopters, set up a temporary hospital in the flood zone and evacuated at least 13 seriously injured people to Kathmandu, Nepal’s capital.· 救援行动:由尼泊尔军方领导的安全团队一直在进行救援行动。军方出动了12架直升机,在洪灾区建立了一所临时医院,并将至少13名重伤员送至尼泊尔首都加德满都。• Nepal’s Government: The disaster adds to the woes of Nepal’s recently elected government, and its 36-year old prime minister, Balendra Shah, who swept to power on the back of a youth-led protest movement last year. Nepal’s education minister, Sasmit Pokharel, said the country had sought help from both its giant neighbors, China and India, to strengthen its rescue operations.· 尼泊尔政府:这场灾难让尼泊尔新当选的政府及其36岁的总理巴伦德拉·沙阿面临的困境雪上加霜。沙阿是在去年一场由青年领导的抗议运动的支持下上台的。尼泊尔教育部长萨斯米特·波卡雷尔表示,该国已寻求其两个毗邻大国——中国和印度的帮助,以加强救援行动。本文节译自《纽约时报》实时报道。翻译:纽约时报中文网获取更多RSS:https://feedx.net https://feedx.site
