翻译考试：非洲派驻马里军队将可能扩大一倍

U.N. officials say an African intervention force now deploying in Mali could double from its envisioned 3,300 troops, as more soldiers are needed to help regain control from Islamist militants holding the country's north.转自:考试网 - [Examw.Com]

Ivory Coast U.N. Ambassador Bamba, who represents the Economic Community of West African States at the United Nations, says nearly 1,000 troops already are in Mali.  He urged the Security Council Tuesday to provide emergency financial and logistical support for the operation.

French and Malian forces have stopped a southward push by the militants, who seized the vast area of northern Mali following a March coup.

A VOA reporter in GAO says most Islamist militants have fled the city since last week, when French warplanes bombed their positions.

联合国官员说，由于需要更多军人协助马里政府从盘踞北部的伊斯兰激进分子手中夺回该地区的控制权，部署在马里的非洲干预部队可能比预期的3300人扩大一倍。

科特迪瓦常驻联合国代表巴姆巴是西非国家经济共同体在联合国的代言人。他说，目前已经在马里部署了将近1000名军人。星期二，巴姆巴敦促联合国安理会为非洲部队的行动提供紧急资金和后勤支援。

法国和马里军队已经阻止激进分子向南部推进。在去年3月政变后，激进分子控制了马里北部广大地区。

在马里城市加奥的一名美国之音记者说，自法国战机上星期轰炸伊斯兰激进分子的阵地后，大部分激进分子已经逃离加奥。
