CNN News: 美海軍陸戰(zhàn)隊進入敘利亞

U.S. Marines are reportedly on the ground in the Middle Eastern country of Syria and they have artillery. They`re gearing up for an assault on the northern Syrian city of Raqqa. Syria has been at civil war since 2011.

據(jù)報道，美國海軍已經登上敘利亞，同時還攜帶了大炮，準備向敘利亞北部城市拉卡發(fā)動襲擊。敘利亞內戰(zhàn)從2011年開始。

The ISIS terrorist group which controls a significant part of the country has declared Raqqa as its capital. But local Syrian fighters who were supported by the U.S. are preparing to try to drive ISIS out of Raqqa, and U.S. officials say the additional American Marines are there to help.

伊斯蘭國已經控制了該國的重要部分，并宣稱將拉卡作為首都。但是，在美國的支持下，當?shù)氐臄⒗麃喪勘鴾蕚鋵⒁了固m國趕出拉卡，美國官員表示，支援的美國海軍已經抵達以提供幫助。

The U.S. military hasn`t said exactly where the Marines are or how many are there. In fact, it hasn`t confirmed that they`re in Syria at all because of concerns about security. But as the U.S. military is supporting Iraq troops effort to drive ISIS from the Iraqi city of Mosul, American military commanders have been talking for weeks about a deployment near Raqqa. U.S. officials don`t expect this to be the last battles against ISIS, but they could dramatically weaken the terrorist group`s strength in the Middle East.

美國軍方并未準確提供現(xiàn)在海軍的位置以及具體海軍的數(shù)量。實際上，尚不能確認這些海軍抵達敘利亞完全是由于安全原因。但是美國軍方在不斷支持伊拉克軍隊驅逐摩蘇爾的伊斯蘭國武裝分子。美國軍官已經就拉卡的軍事部署問題討論數(shù)周。美國官員表示，這可能不是針對伊斯蘭國的最后的戰(zhàn)役，但是他們會極大的削弱伊斯蘭國在中東的力量。
