法国警方认定巴黎袭击由三组恐怖分子合作所为,请看本报昨日的报道:
French police have identified three teams of gunmen wearing suicide vests who killed at least 129 people during an onslaught on the French capital claimed by the Islamic State group, prosecutors said Saturday.
A 29-year-old Frenchman was the first to be confirmed among the seven attackers, all of whom died in the assault, while two other men who registered as refugees in Greece have been linked to the atrocities.
The Greek line of inquiry and the discovery of at least one Syrian passport at the scene have raised suspicions that some of the attackers or accomplices might have entered Europe as part of an influx of people fleeing Syria’s civil war.
报道中的onslaught就是“袭击”,由on (正在发生)和slaught (屠杀)构成。例如:
The city resisted the enemy onslaught for two weeks.
这个城市反抗敌人的猛攻达两星期之久。
