Hundreds of Ukrainians defending Azovstal plant surrender to uncertain fate

MARIUPOL, Ukraine, May 17 (Reuters) - Hundreds of Ukrainian fighters surrendered to an uncertain fate on Tuesday after weeks holed up in the bunkers and tunnels below Mariupol's Azovstal steel works as the most devastating siege of Russia's war in Ukraine drew to a close.

数百名乌克兰战士在马里乌波尔的亚速钢铁厂（Azovstal）下方的掩体和隧道中躲藏了数周后，周二在不确定的命运中投降，因为俄罗斯在乌克兰的战争中最具破坏性的围攻接近尾声。

Russian forces pummelled Mariupol, a major port on the Sea of Azov between Russia and Crimea, with artillery for weeks. After the urban warfare that followed, the city is a wasteland.

俄罗斯军队用火炮袭击了位于俄罗斯和克里米亚之间的亚速海主要港口马里乌波尔，持续了数周之久。在随后的城市战之后，这座城市变成了一片荒地。

Civilians and Ukrainian fighters had hunkered down in Azovstal, a vast Soviet-era plant founded under Josef Stalin and designed with a maze of bunkers and tunnels to withstand nuclear attack.

平民和乌克兰战士躲在亚速钢铁厂（Azovstal），这是一个巨大的苏联时代工厂，由约瑟夫·斯大林创立，设计有迷宫般的掩体和隧道以抵御核攻击。

Russia's defence ministry said 265 fighters had surrendered, including 51 who were seriously wounded and would be treated at Novoazovsk in the Russian-backed breakaway Donetsk region.

俄罗斯国防部表示，已有 265 名战士投降，其中 51 人受重伤，将在俄罗斯支持的脱离顿涅茨克地区的新亚速斯克接受治疗。

Five buses took wounded fighters there early on Tuesday, and in the evening a Reuters witness saw seven more, escorted by armoured vehicles. They brought other Azovstal fighters to a newly reopened prison in Olenivka near the regional capital Donetsk.

周二早些时候，五辆公共汽车将受伤的战士送往那里，晚上，一名路透社的目击者看到了另外七辆，由装甲车护送。他们将其他亚速钢铁厂（Azovstal）战士带到了地区首府顿涅茨克附近 Olenivka 新开办的监狱。

The occupants were not visibly wounded. One bore a prominent tattoo on his neck featuring a Ukrainian national trident symbol.

车内的士兵们没有明显的伤口。其中一个人的脖子上有一个突出的纹身，上面印有乌克兰国家三叉戟符号。
