菲律宾棉兰老岛戒严将延期一年

The Philippines parliament voted in favour of President Rodrigo Duterte’s request to extend martial law over the southern island of Mindanao for a year on Wednesday following the end of a battle there with an Isis-linked insurgency in October.

菲律宾议会对菲律宾总统罗德里戈•杜特尔特(Rodrigo Duterte)周三提出的将菲律宾南部棉兰老岛(Mindanao)的戒严令延长1年的要求投了赞成票。此前该地区爆发的与伊斯兰国(ISIS)有关的战斗在10月结束。

Mr Duterte in May imposed martial law over the island after violence broke out in the city of Marawi involving an Islamist alliance that attempted to establish a caliphate in Southeast Asia.

今年5月杜特尔特下令对该岛实施戒严。此前，棉兰老岛马拉维市(Marawi)爆发暴力冲突，涉及一个试图在东南亚建立哈里发国的伊斯兰分子联盟。

The five-month siege saw more than 1,000 people killed, including dozens of civilians, and more than 350,000 people displaced.

在马拉维被封锁的5个月时间里，有逾1000人被杀，其中包括几十个平民。还有逾35万人流离失所。

While the Philippines government announced the end of the conflict in late October – after the military killed the insurgents’ two key leaders – Mr Duterte sought the extension in order to continue targeting people linked to the groups.

尽管在菲律宾军方杀死叛军中的两名关键领袖之后，菲律宾政府在10月末宣布冲突结束，杜特尔特寻求延期戒严令，以继续追捕与该伊斯兰分子联盟有关联的人。
