荷蘭將發佈調查報告解密馬航MH17空難原因

The Dutch Safety Board is to publish a final report on why Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 broke up over Ukraine in 2014, killing all 298 on board.

荷蘭安全委員會即將發佈關於馬航MH17航班空難的最終調查報告，此次空難於2014年發生於烏克蘭上空，飛機損毀導致機上298人喪生。

Preliminary findings say it was hit by "high-energy objects from outside the aircraft", fuelling speculation that a surface-to-air missile was responsible.

初步的報告中認爲飛機遭到了“機艙以外的高能物體”的撞擊，從燃料使用方面推測這應該是一枚“地對空”導彈。

The West and Ukraine say Russian-backed rebels brought down the Boeing 777, while Russia blames Ukraine. But the report will not say who was to blame.

西方國家和烏克蘭認爲是俄羅斯撐腰的反政府武裝打下了這架波音777飛機，而同時俄羅斯又在就此事譴責烏克蘭。但是這次的報告不會斷言誰纔是元兇。

Russia is to issue its own report：The plane - flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur - crashed in rebel-held eastern Ukraine on 17 July 2014 at the height of the conflict between government troops and the pro-Russian victims included 196 Dutch nationals and 10 Britons.

俄羅斯也將會發布自己的報告：從阿姆斯特丹出發飛往吉隆坡的飛機於2014年7月17日在反政府武裝佔領的烏克蘭東部地區墜落，而此時正值政府軍隊和支持俄羅斯的獨立派衝突最激烈的時候。遇難者包括196名荷蘭國民和10名英國人。

The Dutch Safety Board is expected to present its findings first to the victims' families and relatives and then to reporters at the Gilze-Rijen military base in the board will also show parts of the aircraft that have been brought back from the rebel-held Donetsk region and reconstructed.

荷蘭安全委員會應該會把調查發現首先告知遇難者家屬然後再告知荷蘭Gilze-Rijen軍事基地的報告發言人。委員會也將會公開展示一部分失事飛機的殘骸，這些殘骸都從反政府武裝佔領的頓涅茨克地區帶回來之後進行了重組。

The report will look at four key issues:1. what caused the plane to disintegrate in mid-air 2. why it was flying over the conflict region 3. why some relatives had to wait four days before receiving official confirmation that their loved ones were on board 4. to what extent passengers and crew were aware of what was happening in the final moments.

這份報告主要包含四個關鍵點：1. 是什麼導致飛機在半空解體的2. 爲什麼這架飛機會飛經衝突地區上空3. 爲什麼有的遇難者家屬不得不等待四天，官方纔證實了他們的親人在這架飛機上4. 機上的乘客和機組人員在最後時刻對發生的事瞭解到什麼程度

However, the report will not directly address the issue of who was responsible for the is because the board does not have the authority to apportion blame, under the rules governing international flight crash investigations.A separate Dutch-led criminal investigation is still going on. Its findings are expected to be published in several months' time.

然而這份報告並不會直接指出誰應該爲這場災難負責。這是因爲根據國際航班事故調查的相關規定，安全委員會並沒有權力追責。另一個獨立的由荷蘭牽頭的犯罪調查組仍然在繼續調查此事，調查結果應該會在幾個月內被公之於衆。

Did they suffer? Anna Holligan, BBC News, The Hague——The Dutch Safety Board might not provide a conclusive answer as to whether the crew and passengers were conscious in those final the families hope this technical aviation report will at least end the speculation about what caused their deaths.

遇難者有沒有遭受痛苦？Anna Holligan, BBC新聞，於Hague報道——荷蘭安全委員會可能不會提供一個確定的答案來回答機組人員和機上乘客在最後時刻是否還有意識。但是遇難者家屬希望這種專業的航空報告至少能夠找出到底是什麼東西導致了親人死亡，結束一切猜測。

"Now, finally, we're getting answers from an organisation that can verify what actually happened," says Evert Van Zijtveld - deputy chairman of the MH17 Air Disaster Association, who lost his son, daughter and parents-in-law on flight MH17."But we still need proof. If they say our families felt something, we want evidence."

“現在，我們終於可以從一個能夠確定到底發生了什麼的組織那裏得到答案了。”Evert Van Zijtveld說。他是MH17空難協會的副主席，事故中他失去了兒子，女兒和兒媳。“但是我們始終希望得到確定的說法，如果說我們到底要什麼，我們要證據。”

Prosecutors have suggested that the aircraft was most likely brought down by a Russian-made Buk surface-to-air missile - which experts say both Russian and Ukrainian armies government in Ukraine and several Western officials have said the missile was brought from Russia and launched from the rebel-held part of ia denies the accusations, saying the plane was shot down by either a surface-to-air missile fired by Ukrainian forces or a Ukrainian fighter Ukrainian government in Kiev rejects these claims as groundless.

公訴人表示飛機最有可能是被一枚俄羅斯製造的“山毛櫸”地對空導彈打下來的。而專家稱“山毛櫸”導彈俄羅斯軍方和烏克蘭軍方都有。烏克蘭政府和幾個西方國家官方都說導彈是從俄羅斯帶來的而且也是從反政府武裝佔領的那一部分區域發射的。俄羅斯否認了這項指控並說飛機是被一枚地對空導彈打下來的，但這枚導彈是由烏克蘭地面部隊或者烏克蘭戰鬥機發射的。而在基輔的烏克蘭政府拒絕承認這些莫須有的罪名。

In July, Russia vetoed a draft resolution at the UN Security Council to set up an international tribunal into the MH17 air ident Vladimir Putin said at the time the establishment of such a tribunal would be "premature" and "counter-productive".

俄羅斯七月在聯合國安全理事會否決了就馬航MH17空難設立國際刑事法庭的決議草案。普京總統此時宣稱這樣一個刑事法庭的建立是草率且適得其反的。

Before the Dutch report is released on Tuesday, Russia's state arms producer Almaz-Antey - which makes Buk missiles - is expected to announce the results of its own investigation.

在荷蘭的報告於週二發佈之前，俄羅斯的軍火製造商同時也是山毛櫸導彈製造商的Almaz-Antey公司應該要發佈他們自己的調查結果。

Senior Russian government officials have said the Dutch investigators have not been co-operating with Russian experts."A series of facts (about the shooting down) that were presented by Russia seem have not been taken into consideration - for reasons that we do not understand," Dmitry Peskov, a spokesman for President Putin, said on Monday.

俄羅斯政府高級官員表示荷蘭調查員並沒有和俄羅斯專家進行合作。“俄方所說的一系列事實（包括飛機被擊落)似乎是沒有被列入考慮，出於一些我們並不瞭解的理由。”普京總統的發言人Dmitry Peskov在星期一的發言中這麼說。
