韩国:朝鲜划设禁航区恐进行导弹测试

North Korea has declared a no-sail zone off its eastern coast, raising concerns about another missile test, according to South Korean military officials.

据韩国军方官员称，朝鲜在其东海岸划定了一个禁航区，引发了对朝鲜再次进行导弹测试的担忧。

The no-sail zone, which covers an area near the eastern coastal city of Wonsan, is effective from November 11 to December 7, the officials said this week. reports say the order was first circulated through North Korea's internal communication channels.

韩国官员本周表示，禁航区在朝鲜东部港口城市元山附近，禁航期为11月11日至12月7日。有关报道说，这一指令首先是通过朝鲜内部交流通道传出来的。

North Korea does not appear to have notified International organizations of the Move. In an email to VOA on Monday, the U.N.’s International Maritime Organization said it has not received any notification from North Korea regarding a no sail declaration.

朝鲜似乎并没有就这一举动知会国际组织。周一，联合国国际海事组织在发给美国之音的邮件中说，还没有收到来自朝鲜的关于宣告禁航的任何通知。

Analysts in Seoul say Pyongyang could launch a mid-range missile or a new type of ballistic missile considering the extent of coverage.

首尔的分析人士称，考虑到这次禁航区的范围之广，平壤可能会发射一枚中程导弹，或是一种新型弹道导弹。

But a South Korean official who asked to remain anonymous told VOA the communist country declared no sail zones multiple times over the past few months, but did not follow with a missile launch.

但是一名不愿透露姓名的韩国官员告诉美国之音，过去几个月间，这个共产主义国家划设了几次禁航区，但是并没有发射导弹。

The North Korean move comes amid news reports that U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon plans to travel to Pyongyang this week. Citing a high-level U.N. source, South Korea’s Yonhap news agency said Ban is likely to meet with Kim Jong Un. But the report has not yet been confirmed by the U.N..

就在朝鲜作出这一举动的同时，有报道称联合国秘书长潘基文计划本周前往平壤。一位联合国高级别的消息人士表示，韩国联合通讯社称潘基文很可能与金正恩会面。不过这份报道还没有得到联合国的证实。
