尼日利亞首都公車站爆炸恐怕造成慘重傷亡

An explosion has hit a bus station in Nigeria's capital with many people feared dead.

The blast Monday in Abuja happened as people were traveling to work.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack.

The Islamist militant group Boko Haram often carries out attacks in its attempt to create a strict Islamic state in the northern part of Nigeria.

Last week, suspected Islamists killed at least 60 people on an attack in Borno State.

Boko Haram has been blamed for thousands of deaths since launching an insurgency against the government in 2009.

Amnesty International said two weeks ago that 1,500 people have died in Boko Haram-related violence this year alone

尼日利亞首都阿布賈的一處公共汽車站星期一發生爆炸，恐怕造成很多人死亡。

爆炸發生時，人們正在上班的路上。

目前還沒有人宣稱對襲擊負責。

伊斯蘭激進組織博科聖地經常發動這類襲擊。這個組織試圖在尼日利亞北部建立一個嚴格執行伊斯蘭法律的國家。

上星期，疑似伊斯蘭激進分子的人在博爾諾州發動了一次襲擊，打死至少60人。

自從博科聖地組織2009年發動反政府暴動以來，據信他們已經殺害了數以千計的人。

國際特赦組織兩個星期前說，僅在今年就有1500人死於跟博科聖地有關的暴力。
