TRIPOLI, Aug 14 (Reuters) - Libyan forces fighting to oust Islamic State
from their former North African stronghold of Sirte said they had made advances
on Sunday in a coastal neighborhood after staging attacks by land, sea and
air.
的黎波里，8月14日(路透社)-利比亚军队力图将“伊斯兰国”赶出其在北非的前据点苏尔特地区，称海陆空三方发动袭击后周日在沿海一带取得进展。
The forces, led by brigades from the city of Misrata and aligned with the
U.N.-backed government in Tripoli, secured several key sites in Sirte this week,
their progress helped by U.S. air strikes against Islamic State that began on
Aug. 1.
该军队由米苏拉塔部队联合联合国所支持的的黎波里政府领导，本周占据了苏尔特的几个重要据点，这一进展得益于美国于8月1日开始空袭“伊斯兰国”。
Islamic State militants are now encircled in Sirte’s central residential
areas.
“伊斯兰国”的武装分子现被包围于苏尔特中央居住区。
“The forces have made more progress in neighborhood Number Two, with help
from artillery and from naval forces,” spokesman Rida Issa said. Libyan jets
carried out two air strikes, he said, and a picture posted by the forces on
social media showed guns mounted on a tug boat involved in the operation.
“在炮兵部队和海军部队的帮助下，该军队在二号附近取得更大进展，”发言人里达.伊萨如是说。利比亚战斗机进行了两次空袭，社交媒体上发布了一张将枪支安装在拖船上参与战斗的图片。
At least four members of the Misrata-led brigades were killed in Sunday’s
clashes and 32 were wounded, said Akram Gliwan, a spokesman for Misrata Central
Hospital.
米苏拉塔领导的部队中至少有四名成员在周日的冲突中丧生，32人受伤，米苏塔中心医院发言人阿克拉姆·格里万称。
The brigades said on Saturday that they had gained control of a radio
building previously used by Islamic State for broadcasting. The building is
close to the Ouagadougou convention complex, a symbolic landmark in Sirte that
the brigades seized this past week, raising the Libyan flag there in place of
Islamic State’s black banner.
米苏拉塔领导的部队在周六表示他们已经控制了“伊斯兰国”先前用于广播的电台大楼。该大楼靠近苏尔特地标性建筑瓦加杜古会议中心，米苏拉塔领导的部队于上周占领该地，在该地竖起了利比亚国旗取代了“伊斯兰国”的黑色旗帜。
As of Thursday, the United States had carried out 41 strikes targeting
Islamic State fighting positions, vehicles and weapons in Sirte.
截至周四，美国向“伊斯兰国”在苏尔特地区的战略要点、车辆、武器发动了41次袭击。
Islamic State took over Sirte last year, enforcing its ultra-hardline rule
on the city and basing many foreign fighters there. The government-backed
brigades launched their campaign to capture Sirte in May, counter-attacking
after Islamic State advanced up the coast toward Misrata.
去年“伊斯兰国”占领苏尔特地区，对城市实行极端强硬统治，以当地的外国士兵为根基。五月政府所支持的部队发动袭击以占领苏尔特，反击“伊斯兰国”沿海岸向米苏拉塔进军。
