沙烏地首都機場延長關閉期限 航空業面臨嚴重衝擊

Quick Look

葉門胡塞武裝週一深夜發射彈道飛彈襲擊沙特利雅德哈立德國王國際機場,造成13人死亡、逾300人受傷。沙特當局將機場關閉期限延長至週六,多家航空公司取消航班。此次襲擊是沙特十多年來最致命攻擊,進一步加劇該國航空業壓力,並引發對民航安全的國際關注。

Why It Matters

葉門胡塞武裝與沙特阿拉伯長期處於衝突狀態,近期透過彈道飛彈和無人機襲擊沙特境內目標,此次為其最嚴重的一次攻擊。

Font size

與伊朗結盟的葉門青年運動(Houthis)持續發動攻擊,利雅德上空已不見航班蹤影。當局將哈立德國王國際機場的關閉期限延長至週六,各航空公司也紛紛取消航班。

路透社報導,哈立德國王國際機場(King Khalid International Airport)是沙烏地阿拉伯僅次於吉達(Jeddah)的第二繁忙機場。沙國民航局在聲明中表示,暫停運作是為完成確保機場設施安全與運作就緒的相關程序。

請繼續往下閱讀...

青年運動週一深夜表示,已以彈道飛彈攻擊該機場;而沙國稍早則表示,已攔截並擊毀該組織射向利雅德的一枚彈道飛彈。

青年運動另在聲明中說,以無人機攻擊沙國西南部海米斯穆謝特(Khamis Mushait)的一處空軍基地,對此沙國暫未證實。

根據週一發布的航行通告(NOTAM),哈立德國王國際機場將關閉至格林威治標準時間10月17日晚間9時。

該機場自10日遭襲後持續關閉,該次攻擊造成13人死亡、逾300人受傷,是沙國10多年來最致命的攻擊。11日另一起攻擊造成1人死亡、近12人受傷。

這些攻擊是沙國航空業近年來遭遇的最嚴重衝擊之一。業界原本就受中東各地衝突所苦,航空燃油價格上漲又侵蝕獲利,攻擊更加重壓力,也引發外界擔憂民航業恐淪為武裝衝突的目標。

航空分析公司Cirium表示,沙國所有機場的航班取消率達46.4%。此次干擾迫使歐洲與亞洲多家航空公司暫停服務,美國聯邦航空總署(FAA)11日建議美國航空公司飛往或飛越沙國時謹慎行事,歐盟航空安全局(EASA)早在9日就因飛彈及無人機攻擊,擴大針對沙國領空的警告範圍。

報導指出,與青年運動的衝突升溫,也點燃對經濟衝擊擴大的憂慮。沙國今年實質國內生產毛額(GDP)預估將萎縮3.6%,原因包括石油相關活動減少等。

衝擊也波及本月原定在利雅德舉行的活動,包括「未來投資倡議」(Future Investment Initiative)及世界石油理事會能源大會(WPC Energy Congress),後者已有多名石油業高層從議程中撤下。(編譯:黎婧)

The dog-blood tyrant always transforms! Chinese state media rushes into AI micro-short drama market, "main theme" brainwashes and evolves

Beijing is accelerating the application of AI micro-short dramas to consolidate ideological work and public opinion guidance. The AI ​​micro-short drama "Iron Remembers" produced by the News and Communication Center of the Chinese People's Liberation Army takes the Red Army's Long March as the background and personifies communication equipment to convey the history of the revolution. Official and private collaborations produce such works in an effort to modernize political propaganda, strengthen the national narrative and counter negative Western portrayals of China. At the regulatory level, auditing and labeling requirements have been strengthened due to the proliferation of AI-generated content.

UK PM Burnham says Iran’s IRGC ‘highly likely’ to have been behind RAF Fairford incident

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham stated on Monday that a suspected plot targeting RAF Fairford airbase in Britain was highly likely coordinated in Iran and almost certainly directed by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, following the arrest of five British men near the base on September 27 on terrorism and explosives charges, with US officials confirming a suspected Iranian drone attack plan that led to the withdrawal of US bombers from the base.
