AS IT IS 2015-11-17 Moroccan-Belgian Named Leader of Paris Attack 巴黎恐袭案主谋浮出水面

French officials say the man who is suspected of organizing Friday’s terrorist attack in Paris is Belgian citizen Abdelhamid Abaaoud.

法国政府官员称，周五发生的巴黎袭击案主谋疑为一名摩洛哥裔比利时男子阿巴乌德。

Police say Abaaoud is 27 years old. He is said to be part of a Brussels-based terrorist cell. He avoided capture in Europe and is believed to be in Syria.

警方称，阿巴乌德今年27岁。据说此人为恐怖组织位于布鲁塞尔据点的成员。他曾经侥幸躲过了欧洲的抓捕行动，现在身处叙利亚。

Belgian media says Abaaoud is of Moroccan descent. He has been wanted since January following a gun battle with police in eastern Belgium. 

比利时官方则称，阿巴乌德拥有摩洛哥血统。因1月份策划袭击比利时警方被通缉。

Abaaoud is suspected of organizing the attacks Friday that left at least 129 people dead and more than 300 wounded in Paris.  He has also been linked to failed attacks on a Paris-bound train in August and a church in April.

警方怀疑阿巴乌德策划并指挥此次巴黎发生的造成300多人受伤，至少129人死亡的袭击案。今年4月份，阿巴乌德企图袭击巴黎一间教堂，8月份又指示枪手登上一列开往巴黎的“大力士”火车，企图大开杀戒，但皆未能得逞。

Abaaoud played a part in recruiting others to join the Islamic State group. He even recruited his own 13-year-old brother, according to French media.

阿巴乌德负责招募人员加入“伊斯兰国”组织。据法国媒体报道，他甚至引诱13岁的弟弟成为圣战者。

The Guardian¹ reports Abaaoud spent time fighting with the Islamic State, also called ISIS, in Syria. His link to the terrorist group came after he was identified in an ISIS video.

《英国卫报》报道称：阿巴乌德效命于叙利亚的“伊斯兰国”组织，也称“ISIS”。在一次“ISIS”发布的视频中露面之后，被确定为极端恐怖分子。

French police continued to raid possible terrorist safe houses Monday. More than 150 raids have taken place. The raids took place in Toulouse, Grenoble, Jeumont, Lyon and the Paris suburbs. Ten people were detained. Weapons also were taken in the raids, including a rocket launcher, guns and bulletproof vests.

参与周五巴黎恐怖袭击的一名自杀式炸弹袭击者身份已确定，名叫Samy Amkimour。这位28岁的法国人，曾于2012年在一项恐怖袭击案的调查中被指控。
