Gulf tensions rise as US shoots down Iranian drone

美国击落伊朗无人机加剧海湾紧张局势

WASHINGTON: Tensions in the Gulf region mounted Thursday as US President Donald Trump said an American naval vessel shot down an Iranian drone that threatened the ship as it was entering the Strait of Hormuz.

华盛顿：周四，海湾地区紧张局势升级。美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示，一艘美国军舰击落了一架进入霍尔木兹海峡的伊朗无人机，该无人机对美军军舰造成威胁。

It was the first US military engagement with Iran following a series of increasingly serious incidents.

这是继一系列日益严重的事件之后，美国与伊朗的首次军事交锋。

Trump announced that the USS Boxer, an amphibious assault ship, "took defensive action" against the Iranian drone as it was "threatening the safety of the ship and the ship's crew."

特朗普宣布，美国“拳师”号两栖攻击舰对伊朗无人机“采取了防御行动”，因为该无人机“威胁到该军舰及其船员的安全”。

The drone was "immediately destroyed," Trump said, after it approached within 1,000 yards (914 meters) of the Boxer, Trump said.

特朗普称，这架无人机在接近“拳师”号不到1000码(合914米)后就“被摧毁”。

"This is the latest of many provocative and hostile actions by Iran, against vessels operating in international waters," he said.

特朗普表示:“伊朗对在国际水域作业的船只采取了众多挑衅和敌对行动，此次是最新一起。”

If Iran can shoot down an American drone, US also has a right to shoot down a jihadi threatening drone in International waters.

如果伊朗能击落美国无人机，那美国也有权在国际水域击落造成威胁的伊朗无人机。

Excellent job by the US marines.,Stupid Iran, you don't fly a drone within the perimeter of a defence installation or warship.

美国海军陆战队干得不错。愚蠢的伊朗，你不应该让无人机靠近美国军舰。

The US is responsible for increasing tension in different parts of the world or creating tensions where there was none by its sheer brinkmanship. The problems became aggravated by half mad Trump who is not even a full fledged politician, much less a seasoned diplomat. It seems this man is gradually pushing the world to the brink of another World War.

美国的政策加剧了世界各地的紧张局势，在本来不紧张的地方制造了紧张局势。半疯状态的特朗普还不是一个成熟的政治家，更不算是一个经验丰富的外交官，这让问题变得更加严重。看来这个人正在逐渐把世界推向另一场世界大战的边缘。

This is not good for international relations. This shouldn''t escalate into something bigger and involving other nations as well. The world cannot afford another war.

击落无人机，不利于国际关系的发展，不能让局势升级，也不应该牵涉到其他国家。这个世界承受不起另一场战争了。

Why is US BUTTING its Nose in Middle East? Iraq, Syria , Afghanistan, Vietnam, North Korea, North Africa - No War WON.US soldiers Killed and the Families left in SORROW. Vietnam was war of Independence for Vietnamese , but US was using South Vietnam to combat Co sm and resulted in MASS Genocide of Vietnamese, Cambodians, Laotians - Chemical warfare ''Orange Killer'' . Lost war. Afghanistan it was invaded by Russia for oil rare metals, so US trained Osama Bin Laden by CIA and Funded AL QAEDA ...

为什么美国要插手中东事务?还有伊拉克、叙利亚、阿富汗、越南、朝鲜、北非——没有一场战争获胜。美国士兵阵亡，家属悲痛万分。
