世界衛生組織報告稱,黎巴嫩空襲導致 14 名醫護人員喪生
On March 14, 2026, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported a devastating loss: 14 health workers, including doctors and nurses, were killed in Lebanon within just 24 hours.
2026年3月14日,世界衛生組織(WHO)報告了一項令人痛心的損失:在黎巴嫩,僅24小時內就有14名醫護人員(包括醫生和護士)喪生。
Most of these tragic deaths occurred during an airstrike on the Bourj Qalaouiyeh primary healthcare centre, where staff were trapped under rubble.
這些悲劇性死亡大多發生在對布爾吉卡拉維葉(ㄅㄨˋㄦˇㄐㄧˊㄎㄚㄌㄚㄨㄟㄧㄝˋ)基層醫療中心的空襲中,當時工作人員被困在瓦礫之下。
These attacks are part of a wider conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which has severely damaged Lebanon's already fragile medical infrastructure.
這些襲擊是以色列與真主黨之間廣泛衝突的一部分,嚴重破壞了黎巴嫩本就脆弱的醫療基礎設施。
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus strongly condemned these actions, stressing that medical personnel must remain protected under international law.
世界衛生組織秘書長譚德塞(ㄊㄢˊㄉㄜˊㄙㄞˋ)強烈譴責了這些行為,強調醫療人員必須在國際法下受到保護。
While Israel has claimed that such facilities are sometimes misused for military purposes, the Lebanese authorities deny these allegations.
儘管以色列聲稱此類設施有時被挪作軍事用途,但黎巴嫩當局否認了這些指控。
As the violence continues, international observers remain deeply concerned about the collapse of healthcare services and the long-term impact on the region's public health, as the current environment makes it increasingly difficult to provide life-saving treatment to those who need it most.
隨著暴力持續,國際觀察員對醫療服務的崩潰以及對該地區公共衛生的長期影響深感擔憂,因為當前的環境使得向最需要的人提供救命治療變得越來越困難。
