英美兩國禁止部分國家乘客攜帶筆記本等電子設(shè)備登機(jī)

The United States and Great Britain, citing unspecified threats, have banned larger electronic devices on direct flights from several nations in the Middle East and North Africa.

a美國和英國以不明威脅為由，在來自中東和北非幾個(gè)國家的直達(dá)航班上禁止攜帶大型電子設(shè)備。

The new rules prevent passengers from carrying on personal electronic devices larger than a mobile phone. This includes laptops, tablets, electronic games, cameras and DVD players. The barred items must be placed in checked baggage.

這項(xiàng)新規(guī)定禁止乘客攜帶體積大于移動(dòng)電話的個(gè)人電子設(shè)備，包括筆記本電腦、平板電腦、相機(jī)和DVD播放機(jī)。禁止物品必須放在托運(yùn)行李內(nèi)。

The ban applies to direct flights to the United States from 10 airports in mainly Muslim nations. The new rules will affect about 50 flights a day to America of foreign air carriers.

這項(xiàng)禁令適用于人口主要為穆斯林國家的十家機(jī)場直達(dá)美國的航班。新禁令將影響到外國航空公司每天大約50趟飛往美國的航班。

The list includes international airports in Jordan, Kuwait, Egypt, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

被禁名單中包括約旦、科威特、埃及、土耳其、沙特、摩洛哥、卡塔爾和阿聯(lián)酋的國際機(jī)場。

An announcement by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said the ban resulted from unspecified "evaluated intelligence." The intelligence showed that terrorist groups are continuing to target major world airlines, according to a department statement.

美國國土安全部的一項(xiàng)公告稱，這項(xiàng)禁令是由非特定的“經(jīng)過評估的情報(bào)”造成的。根據(jù)該部門的聲明，該情報(bào)顯示恐怖集團(tuán)繼續(xù)以主要的世界航空公司為目標(biāo)。

Terrorists "are aggressively pursuing innovative methods to undertake their attacks," it added. One possible method for attackers is to "smuggle explosive devices in various consumer items," the statement said.

聲明補(bǔ)充說，“恐怖分子還積極追求創(chuàng)新的辦法來進(jìn)行攻擊。”聲明稱，“攻擊者可能會(huì)在各種消費(fèi)品中偷帶爆炸裝置。”

Britain also announced limits on carry-on electronic devices on direct flights from six countries.

英國也宣布限制來自六個(gè)國家直達(dá)航班的乘客攜帶隨身電子設(shè)備。

A spokesman for Prime Minister Theresa May said the rules would be in effect at airports in Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Tunisia and Saudi Arabia. Passengers carrying electronics bigger than a mobile phone will have to place the devices in checked baggage.

英國首相特雷莎·梅的發(fā)言人表示，這項(xiàng)規(guī)則將會(huì)在土耳其、黎巴嫩、約旦、埃及、突尼斯和沙特的機(jī)場生效。乘客攜帶的體積大于移動(dòng)電話的電子設(shè)備必須放置在托運(yùn)行李中。

"We think these steps are necessary and proportionate to allow passengers to travel safely," the British spokesman said.

英國發(fā)言人表示：“我們認(rèn)為這些步驟是必要和適當(dāng)?shù)?，為的是保障乘客安全?rdquo;

There was no change in policy covering electronic devices carried on flights departing from or operating within the United States.

針對離開美國和美國境內(nèi)運(yùn)營航班的電子設(shè)備相關(guān)政策沒有變化。

The DHS increased some security measures for international passengers coming to the U.S. in 2014. The stronger screening methods included a requirement for passengers to power up their phones and other electronic devices.

國土安全部2014年提高了針對來美國際乘客的一些安全措施，更嚴(yán)格的檢查方法包括要求乘客打開手機(jī)等電子設(shè)備的電源。

DHS Secretary John Kelly has said U.S. officials are considering additional measures intended to prevent dangerous people from entering America.

國土安全部秘書長約翰·凱麗表示，美國官員正考慮采取更多措施意圖防止危險(xiǎn)人士進(jìn)入美國。

One proposal is for border agents to ask visitors arriving from certain countries to unlock phones and provide social media account information and passwords.

其中一項(xiàng)提議是讓邊檢人員要求來自特定國家的游客解鎖手機(jī)，并提供社交媒體賬戶信息和密碼。
