本报喀土穆10月29日电王云胜、余豪报道：当地时间10月29日，我第二批赴阿卜耶伊维和直升机分队与首批维和直升机分队轮换交接仪式，在联合国阿卜耶伊临时安全部队营地举行。
KHARTOUM, Nov. 1 -- China’s first two peacekeeping helicopter contingents to Abyei held a handover ceremony at the United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA) camp on October 29, local time.
除了对装备器材、武器弹药、医疗器械等多项内容进行交接，两批分队还围绕阿卜耶伊地区安全形势、飞行环境、担负任务、工作关系和卫生防疫等事项进行了全面交流。
Besides the handover of equipment, weapons and ammunition, and medical equipment, they also exchanged ideas on the security situation, tasks, public health, epidemic prevention and control in the mission area.
中国首批赴阿卜耶伊维和直升机分队指挥长褚志勤表示，两年来，首批任务分队先后辗转两个任务区，连续获得两枚和平荣誉勋章，创造了海外连续执行维和任务时间最长的记录。
Chu Zhiqin, commander of China’s first peacekeeping helicopter contingent to Abyei, said that in the past two years, the contingent has carried out tasks in two mission areas, setting a record as the longest overseas peacekeeping mission of China, and has won two consecutive UN Peace Medals of Honor.
据悉，我第二批赴阿卜耶伊维和直升机分队主要由第82集团军某陆航旅抽组组建而成，下设3个任务中队。阿卜耶伊地区面积约1万平方公里，是苏丹与南苏丹之间存在争议的地区之一。
It is learnt that China’s second peacekeeping helicopter contingent to Abyei is mainly composed of personnel selected from an army aviation brigade under the PLA 82nd Group Army. With an area of about 10,000 square kilometers, the Abyei region is one of the disputed areas between Sudan and South Sudan in Africa.
