Russian Troops Invade Eastern Ukraine According to NATO, Local Officials
 

北約與地方官員指稱俄國部隊入侵烏克蘭東部

A top Ukrainian army officer said a "full-scale invasion" of his country was under way Thursday, as a U.S. official reported up to 1,000 Russian troops had crossed Ukraine's southern border to fight alongside pro-Russian rebels.
  烏克蘭一位高階陸軍軍官表示他的國家在週四遭到「大規模入侵」,一名美國官員回報多達一千名俄軍士兵已越過烏克蘭南部的邊界,與支持俄國的反抗軍並肩作戰。
U.S. officials said Russian troops were directly involved in the latest fighting, despite Moscow's denials.
  美國官員表示,儘管莫斯科方面否認,但俄軍部隊已直接介入了最近的戰鬥。
Rebels backed by Russian tanks and armored personnel carriers fought Ukrainian forces on two fronts Thursday: southeast of rebel-held Donetsk and along the nation's southern coast in the town of Novoazovsk, about 20 kilometers from the Russian border, said Mykhailo Lysenko, the deputy commander of the Ukrainian Donbas battalion.
  反抗軍獲得俄國坦克與裝甲運兵車的支援,在週四於兩條戰線與烏克蘭部隊作戰:一處是在反抗軍控制的頓涅茨克東南方,另一處是在該國南部海岸的新亞速斯克鎮,距離俄國邊界約二十公里,烏克蘭頓巴斯營副司令米克羅•列森科表示。
"This is a full-scale invasion," Lysenko said, referring to the fighting in the south.
  「這是一場大規模入侵,」列森科針對南方的戰鬥指出。
Intelligence now indicates that up to 1,000 Russian troops have moved into southern Ukraine with heavy weapons and are fighting there, a U.S. official told CNN on Thursday.
  目前情報顯示已有多達一千名俄軍士兵帶著重型武器進入烏克蘭南部,並且在那裡進行作戰,一名美國官員在週四向 CNN 表示。
As evidence, NATO provided satellite images reportedly showing Russian troops engaged in military operations inside Ukraine.
  北約提供衛星影像做為證據,據報影像顯示俄軍部隊在烏克蘭境內進行軍事行動。
"The images, captured in late August, depict Russian self-propelled artillery units moving in a convoy through the Ukrainian countryside and then preparing for action by establishing firing positions in the area of Krasnodon, Ukraine," NATO said in a news release.
  「這些於八月下旬拍攝的影像,顯示俄軍自走砲部隊隨著一支車隊穿越烏克蘭鄉間,然後在烏克蘭克拉斯諾頓地區建立發射陣地,準備進行作戰,」北約在一份新聞稿中指出。
Commercial satellite imagery shows the same, according to a British security source with detailed knowledge of UK intelligence estimates.
One image that British intelligence has analyzed, dated Tuesday, shows 15 heavy trucks, at least seven armored vehicles and at least nine artillery positions.
  商業衛星影像也顯示了同樣的情形,一個詳知英國情報評估的英國安全消息來源指出。該英國情報部門分析了一幅於週二拍攝的影像,顯示有十五輛重型卡車、至少七部裝甲車以及至少九個砲陣地。
