台湾坦克掉进河里，3名士兵死亡

Three soldiers were killed when a tank slipped and plunged into a river during heavy rains following an annual firing drill in southern Taiwan, officials said Tuesday.

官员周二称在台湾南部年度的射击演练后一辆坦克暴雨期间滑进河里致死3名士兵。

The CM11 armoured vehicle carrying five soldiers was returning to camp in southern Pingtung county around 10:30 am (0230 GMT) after completing the firing test when it slipped from a bridge and fell upside down into the Wangsha river, the army said.

在完成射击演练后这辆CM11装甲车携带5名士兵回到屏东市的营地，突然从桥上滑入了王沙河，军队称。

The driver managed to escape with light injuries but four others were trapped inside the vehicle and showed no signs of life when they were rescued.

驾驶员成功逃脱，只患了点轻伤，而其他四人被困在车里，救出来时已经没有生命迹象。

The army initially said they were all killed but later revised the death toll to three as one soldier was revived after emergency treatment and was transferred to a military hospital in neighbouring Kaohsiung city.

起先军队称所有人都死了，后来将死亡数字改成3个，因为其中一个在紧急治疗后复活过来了，并被转移到了附近高雄的军事医院。
