📰 Myanmar coup: 'Evidence' live bullets used against protesters, says UN envoy
🀄 緬甸政變：聯合國特使說，“證據”實彈用於抗議者
Myanmar's security forces have been using live ammunition against anti-coup protesters in breach of international law, the UN human rights envoy says.
📌 這篇文章關於緬甸政變Myanmar coup的新聞，根據聯合國人權使節 the UN human rights envoy，該國的保安部隊 security forces 對反對政變的示威者 (anti-coup protesters) 使用實彈 live ammunition，這是違法國際法 (in breach of international law)。
Speaking at an emergency meeting in Geneva, Thomas Andrews condemned the leaders of the coup and said there were "growing reports and photographic evidence" of wrongdoing.
He called for economic sanctions and a ban on weapons exports to the country.
📌 那位使節譴責 condemn 政變領袖並要求 (call for) 經濟制裁 (economic sanctions) 和武器出口禁令 (ban on weapons exports)。
Protests continued on Friday in defiance of a plea from the army chief. Gen Min Aung Hlaing called for "unity" to prevent "disintegration" as the country marks the Union Day holiday. Demonstrators are demanding the release of detained elected leaders, including Aung San Suu Kyi.
📌 上週五，抗議活動繼續進行，無視 (in defiance of) 陸軍參謀長的呼籲。昂敏·赫林將軍呼籲“團結”，以防止“瓦解” (disintegration)，因為該國是聯合紀念日假期。示威者要求釋放包括昂山素季在內的被拘留的民選領導人。
During Friday's emergency meeting, Mr Andrews - the United Nations human rights investigator for Myanmar - said while investigators have been denied access to Myanmar, there was growing evidence that live ammunition had been used against protesters.
📌 在星期五的緊急會議上，聯合國緬甸人權調查員安德魯斯先生說，雖然調查人員被拒絕進入緬甸，但越來越多的證據表明，實彈已被用於抗議者。
Mr Andrews said the people of Myanmar had invested their hope in the UN, and needed more than a statement on paper. He called on the UN - through the security council - to consider economic sanctions against Myanmar, a ban on arms exports, and a travel ban on military leaders.
📌 安德魯斯先生說，緬甸人民對聯合國投入(invest)了希望，不僅需要紙上聲明 (statement)。他呼籲聯合國-通過安理會-考慮對緬甸進行經濟制裁，禁止武器出口，以及禁止軍事領導人旅行。
Earlier this week, 19-year-old Mya Thwe Thwe Khaing was shot in the head and seriously injured when police tried to disperse protesters using water cannon, rubber bullets and live rounds.
She remains on a ventilator in hospital in a critical condition. The wound was consistent with one from live ammunition, rights groups said.
📌 本週早些時候，當警察試圖使用水槍，橡皮子彈和實彈驅散抗議者時，19歲的Mya Thwe Thwe Khaing 頭部被槍打致重傷。
她處於危急狀態，仍在醫院的呼吸機上。人權組織說，傷口與實彈的傷口一致(consistent)。
The UN calls for sanctions came as protests continued on Union Day, with reports of rubber bullets fired by police in Mawlamine.
On Thursday, in a TV address to the nation, Gen Hlaing said those protesting had been "incited" and again asked them to work for the country without "focusing on the emotion".
📌 聯合國呼籲制裁的呼籲是在聯合日抗議活動繼續進行的時候發生的，有報導說警察在毛拉敏省發射了橡皮子彈。
星期四，赫林將軍在全國電視講話中說，那些抗議活動是“被煽動的”(incited)，並再次要求他們為該國工作而不必“集中精力” (focus on the emotion)。
The military marked Union Day by granting amnesty to, and ordering the release of, more than 23,000 prisoners, including 55 foreigners. Mass pardons are common on national days, often to reduce numbers in overcrowded prisons.
📌 軍方通過大赦並命令釋放23,000多名囚犯，其中包括55名外國人，來紀念“聯合日”。大規模赦免在國慶節很普遍，通常是為了減少人滿為患 (overcrowded) 的監獄的人數。
Union Day celebrates the signing in 1947 of an agreement between the government under Ms Suu Kyi's father, Aung San, and the Shan, Kachin and Chin people that marked the unification of the republic.
A student activist in Mandalay, Tayzar San, told the BBC he feared the prisoners were being released to attack protesters.
📌 工會紀念日慶祝1947年Suu Kyi女士的父親昂山 (Aung San) 領導下的政府與標誌著共和國統一的Shan邦，克欽邦和欽邦人之間簽署協議。曼德勒的一名學生活動家Tayzar San告訴英國廣播公司(BBC)，他擔心囚犯會被釋放以襲擊示威者。
"The people have a very bad precedent. In 1988, the military junta released the pro-military prisoners and they disturbed our people's peaceful demonstrations," he said.
The crackdown on the 1988 pro-democracy uprising is believed to have left thousands dead.
📌他說：“人民有一個非常糟糕的先例。1988年，軍政府釋放了親軍囚犯，他們打擾了我們人民的和平示威。”
據信，對1988年民主運動的鎮壓使數千人喪生。
