朝鮮威脅攻擊關島,夏威夷及美國本土
North Korea has issued fresh threats against the United States, this time warning it could fire rockets on Guam, Hawaii and the U.S. mainland in retaliation for American bomber sorties.
朝鮮對美國發出新的威脅，揚言可能對關島、夏威夷和美國本土發射火箭，作爲對美國出動轟炸機參加演習的報復。The Korean People's Army also said Tuesday that "all artillery troops including strategic rocket units and long-range artillery units" have been placed in a "combat ready posture."
朝鮮人民軍星期二也表示，包括戰略火箭部隊和遠程炮兵部隊在內的全體朝鮮炮兵已經進入待命作戰狀態。It is the latest in a series of threats by Pyongyang against the U.S. and its regional allies. North Korea's rockets are not believed to have the ability to hit the U.S. mainland.
平壤針對美國及其地區盟友發出一系列威脅，這是最近的一次。據信朝鮮的火箭射程不足以打擊美國本土。
The statement came just hours after South Korean President Park Geun-hye warned the North to abandon its nuclear weapons and stop making provocations, saying this is the only way for Pyongyang to survive.
在朝鮮發出上述聲明的幾小時前，韓國總統朴槿惠警告朝鮮放棄其核武器以及停止挑釁行動，並表示這是平壤避免毀滅的唯一途徑。Ms. Park made the comments during a speech to mark the third anniversary of the deadly sinking of the South Korean warship Cheonan - an attack that Seoul blames on Pyongyang. The North denies conducting the attack, which left 46 sailors dead.
朴槿惠在韓國天安艦沉沒三週年發表講話時做出上述表示。首爾說，天安艦是平壤擊沉的。朝鮮對此予以否認。天安艦沉沒導致46名水兵喪生。
