聯合國：阿富汗衝突造成兒童年度傷亡人數猛增百分之24

The United Nations recorded an alarming 24 percent spike in conflict-related child casualties in Afghanistan and a three percent rise in total civilian casualties in 2016 compared to the year before.

The violence caused more than 11,400 civilian casualties, including around 3,500 deaths last year, according to the annual report by the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, or UNAMA, released in Kabul Monday.

It attributed 61 percent of civilian deaths and injuries to anti-government elements, mainly the Taliban. UNAMA blamed pro-government forces for causing 24 percent of the casualties, saying it reflected a 46 percent increase compared to 2015.

The report could not ascertain responsibility for 10 percent of the casualties caused by the fighting, while the remaining five percent resulted mainly from explosive remnants of war.

The armed conflict in Afghanistan has claimed the lives of around 25,000 Afghan civilians and injured more than 45,000 since 2009, according to UNAMA.聯合國的記錄顯示，在阿富汗與衝突有關的兒童傷亡人數2016年激增24％，平民傷亡總數比上年增加3%。

根據聯合國阿富汗援助團（聯阿援助團）週一公佈的年度報告，去年的暴力事件造成11 400多名平民傷亡，其中約3500人喪生。

報告指出，平民傷亡中有61％是反政府武裝、主要是塔利班造成的。親政府部隊則應對24％的傷亡負責。聯阿援助團說，這比2015年增加了46％。

報告無法明確在交戰中傷亡的10％是哪一方造成的，剩下5％的傷亡是由戰爭遺留爆炸物造成的。

根據聯阿援助團的資料，自2009年以來，阿富汗的武裝衝突導致25000名平民喪生， 45000多人受傷。
