An Egyptian passenger plane, EgyptAir MS181, has made an emergency landing on Cyprus after being hijacked by a man wearing a suicide vest.
近日,在被一个身穿自杀式炸弹背心的男人劫持之后,埃及航空公司一家航班号为MS181的埃及客机紧急迫降在塞浦路斯。The hijacking of the flight which was en-route from Alexandria to Cairo and carrying 82 passengers and a crew of 7, was confirmed by EgyptAir on Twitter at 7.40am GMT.
埃及航空公司于当地时间7点40分在Twitter上证实,这架被劫持的飞机的航线是从亚历山大港飞往首都开罗,飞机上共搭载82名乘客及7名机组成员。A Cypriot government official said that there are suspicions of a bomb on board.
一名塞浦路斯政府官员称飞机上疑似有炸弹。
Former European Commissioner for Education, Androulla Vassiliou, tweeted that hijackers have demanded that authorities leave runway 'in order to release women and children passengers'.
前欧洲教育署委员安德鲁拉·瓦西利乌发布推文称,劫机者要求当地政府人员离开飞机跑道,这样他才会释放机上的妇女和儿童乘客。As of 4 pm Tuesday, most passengers were released and only crew members and four foreigners remain on the plane.
截至北京时间29日下午4点,除机组成员和4名非埃及旅客外的乘客均已被释放。
