　　UN aid agencies are expanding and speeding up their relief operations to hundreds of thousands of people displaced by fighting in Pakistan's northwest province. A UNHCR charter plane carrying 120 tons of relief supplies for people fleeing the fighting landed in Pakistan earlier Tuesday.
联合国救援机构正在扩大并加速援助行动，帮助巴基斯坦西北省份由于战乱而流离失所的数十万民众。一架联合国难民署的包机载着120吨为援助那些逃离战区民众的物资，星期二稍早降落在巴基斯坦。
The UNHCR emergency airlift took off from Dubai early Tuesday morning. The agency says the stock of thousands of mosquito nets, plastic sheets for emergency shelters, plastic rolls and two large portable warehouses² it was carrying will be loaded onto seven trucks.
联合国难民事务高级专员公署的紧急空运物资星期二凌晨从迪拜起飞。这个难民机构说，机上运载的数千顶蚊帐、搭建临时建筑屋顶的塑料布、塑料滚筒以及两个大型便携式仓库等物资，将装上7辆卡车。
UN refugee spokesman, Ron Redmond, says the supplies will be taken immediately to UNHCR's warehouse¹ in Peshawar, the capital of the North West Frontier Province.
联合国难民署的发言人罗恩·莱德蒙说，这些物资将立即送往难民总署在西北边境省首府白沙瓦的库房。
"This airlifted consignment³ will bolster⁴ the thousands of relief supplies such as tents and kitchen sets, jerry cans and so on that are either locally procured⁵ or from our existing stockpiles in Pakistan," Redmond said. "UNHCR is distributing this stuff alongside our non-government partners and local authorities, as part of a joint⁶ UN response. People are being registered in camps and at 38 registration⁷ centers that have now been established by the authorities with UNHCR help. We are in the process of setting up 75 such registration centers."
莱德蒙说：“空运物资将加强数以千计的救援设备，比如帐篷和厨房用品、简便油桶等各种从当地获得的，或者从我们已经存放在巴基斯坦仓库的物品。联合国难民署和我们那些非政府机构的合作伙伴以及地方当局分发这些物资，以此作为联合国共同反应的一部分。流离失所的民众在难民营以及38个登记中心里获得登记在案，这些中心是地方当局在联合国难民署的帮助下建立起来。我们正在设立75个这样的登记中心。”
Government and UN sources put the number of people displaced in the Swat Valley and other areas in northwest Pakistan at 1.3 million since last August. More than one half million have fled since the recent fighting erupted between government forces and Taliban militants⁸.
政府和联合国的消息来源将那些自去年8月在斯瓦特河谷以及巴基斯坦西北部其他地区流离失所的难民人数确定为130万人。其中50多万人是在最近政府军和塔利班激进分子之间爆发战斗以来逃离家园的。
Redmond says most of the displaced people from the new influx⁹ now have been formally registered by the authorities. He says the majority are staying with relatives, friends or host communities. More than 70,000 are in camps.
莱德蒙说，新一轮逃离家园的民众中多数已经得到政府正式的登记。他说，大多数人投靠亲友，或者在收容难民的社区里。有7万多人在难民营中。
World Food Program spokeswoman, Emilia Casella, says her agency is currently feeding 654,000 internally displaced people.
世界粮食计划署的发言人艾米利亚·卡塞拉说，该机构目前负责供应65万4千名在国内流离失所的巴基斯坦人。
"We have got about enough food for 1.5 million people for the next two to three months," Casella said. "And, that is currently what the stocks are in the country and obviously with this influx, there is a great need for increased funding for all humanitarian¹⁰ services. For food so far this year, 42 million in US dollars have been received. But, we are anticipating that the cost of a food operation of this size is going to be closer to about $120 million."
卡塞拉说：“今后两三个月里，我们有足够供给150万人的食品。这个数字是目前在巴基斯坦储存的货物。由于这一波难民潮，显然必须有加大的资金力量来支持所有的人道主义服务机构。 就食品而言，今年到此为止，收到了4千2百万美元的资金。但是我们预计，这种规模的食品运作成本将接近大约一亿两千万美元。”
Aid agencies agree the speed and scale of this crisis is posing huge challenges for everyone. They are appealing to the international community to help the growing number of Pakistanis uprooted¹¹ by the fighting.
救援机构都认为，这次危机的速度和规模对大家都形成了巨大的挑战。他们正向国际社会求助，要求对这些不断增加的因战乱而背井离乡的巴基斯坦人提供帮助。
