意大利總理推出重建中部地震災區計劃
Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi unveiled plans Monday to rebuild large swaths of the mountainous central Italy, ravaged by the region's worst earthquake since 1980. Among the key provisions is the promise to provide shipping containers for people to live in while permanent housing is constructed.
Renzi spoke in Rome, as the scope of Sunday's 6.6 magnitude quake became evident, and as emergency workers scrambled to provide immediate aid to thousands of residents already traumatized by smaller temblors last week. The same region was hit 10 weeks ago by a deadly quake that killed hundreds in the small town of Amatrice.
"We will rebuild everything," Renzi vowed, describing the culturally significant areas northeast of Rome as "territories of beauty."
No deaths or serious injuries have been reported, largely, authorities say, because so many residents of the region were relocated after the August 24 earthquake that rocked Amatrice. However, an estimated 15,000 were left homeless.
The epicenter of Sunday's quake was 70 kilometers southwest of the central city of Perugia and close to the town of Norcia, where already skittish residents saw churches and the 14th century Basilica of St. Benedict heavily damaged on Sunday. An estimated 4,000 people in and around Norcia have been relocated to hotels on the Adriatic coast, where they joined more than 1,000 others still displaced by the Amatrice quake in August.
Renzi said the shipping containers will be in place by December, and he said residents can expect to have new wooden house construction completed by mid-2017.意大利總理馬泰奧·倫齊星期一公佈了重建意大利中部大片山區地帶的計劃，當地遭到了1980年以來該地區最爲嚴重的地震的沉重打擊。關鍵措施包括向受災民衆提供集裝箱，以便在永久住房建好之前，讓人們能有棲身之地。
倫齊於羅馬發表這番談話之際，星期日那場6.6級地震造成的破壞日益明顯，救援人員緊急出動，爲數以千計的居民提供急需救助，這些居民上星期已遭到震級較小的地震的驚嚇。就在10個星期前，該地區還發生過一場地震，在小鎮阿馬特里切造成數百人喪生。
倫齊誓言將重建一切。他說，位於羅馬東北方向的這些文化名勝地區是“美麗的土地”。
目前還沒有聽說有人死亡或受重傷。當局說，這主要是因爲當地很多居民在8月24日重創阿馬特里切的那次地震後都已遷離。不過，估計有1萬5千人因這場地震而無家可歸。
星期日那場地震的震中位於中部城市佩魯賈西南70公里，靠近諾爾恰鎮。鎮內居民已經因之前的地震而緊張不安。地震造成14世紀的聖本篤大教堂等教堂建築嚴重受損。據估計，諾爾恰及周圍有4千人被轉移到亞得里亞海岸的旅館。那些旅館之前已收容了1千多名因爲8月間的阿馬特里切地震而失去家園的人。
倫齊總理說，集裝箱將於12月到位。他說，預計將在2017年中期爲居民們蓋好木質結構的新住房。
