九一八事变爆发92周年，勿忘国耻！

Monday marks the 92nd anniversary of the September 18th incident, which triggered China's 14-year-long war against Japanese aggression. Shenyang City in northeast China's Liaoning Province – where the incident occurred 92 years ago – once again wailed sirens in the same location at the same time to remember the day.

本周一是“九一八”事变92周年纪念日，1931年的今天，中华民族开启了长达14年的浴血奋战。今年，“九一八”事变的爆发地——位于中国东北的沈阳市——再一次响起防空警报，警示人们铭记历史，勿忘国耻。

On the night of September 18, 1931, the Japanese army destroyed a section of the railway in Shenyang, falsely accusing Chinese troops of sabotage to justify a full-scale invasion. Now, 92 years later, the memory of this national humiliation still lives on.

1931年9月18日晚，日军自行炸毁沈阳铁路的一段路轨，反诬中国军队所为，遂以此为借口进攻。92年后的今天，人们对该国耻仍记忆犹新。

"Our country has fought a bloody battle against its enemies, many soldiers lost their lives for the hard-won peace," said one visitor at the 9.18 Historical Museum.

一位参观沈阳九·一八历史博物馆的游客表示：“我们的国家与敌人进行了浴血奋战，许多士兵为了来之不易的和平献出了生命。”

"It is necessary to commemorate the event since many children and young people don't know much about this part of the history, some even have inaccurate understanding," another visitor added.

另一位游客补充道：“很多孩子和年轻人都对这段历史知之甚少，有些人甚至产生了曲解，因此有必要纪念这一历史事件。”

After the September 18 Incident, China waged a war against Japanese aggression for 14 years, and finally won the first full victory against foreign invasion since the Opium War in 1840.

“九一八”事变后，中国进行了长达14年的抗日战争，最终取得了自1840年鸦片战争以来抗击外国侵略的首次全面胜利。

Over the last two decades, the 9.18 Historical Museum has welcomed millions of visitors. It serves as a vital site for patriotic education and commemorative events. The museum's collections have expanded thanks to the donation of historical materials by ordinary citizens.

在过去的20年间，九·一八历史博物馆迎来了数百万游客，成为了弘扬爱国主义教育和举行纪念活动的重要场所。多亏了普通市民的热心捐赠，博物馆的文物史料在近年来不断增加。

"War material donations were carried out on a regular basis, with the purpose of expanding knowledge, deepening awareness and providing appreciation to visitors from all walks of life," Bai Yu, the head of the Office of Collection Management at the museum, told CGTN.

该馆藏品管理办公室负责人白宇在与CGTN的采访时表示：“我们会定期进行战争文物史料的捐赠仪式，旨在扩大知识面、深化民众认知、回馈各行各业的参观者。”

For decades, numerous literary and artistic works offering unique perspectives on the September 18 Incident have emerged. The recent stage performance by the Shenyang acrobatic troupe suggests a renewed interest from audiences in narratives related to the event.

几十年来，围绕“九一八”事变，用独特视角讲述这段历史的文艺作品层出不穷。沈阳杂技团最近的舞台表演表明，观众对与九一八事变相关视角的节目重新产生了兴趣。

An Ning, the director of Shenyang Acrobatic Troupe, told CGTN: "The rule of thumb of the show is that it has to be based on facts. And we've tried a completely new approach of performance combined with acrobatic techniques, in order to bring powerful visual impacts about the September 18 Incident to the audiences."

沈阳杂技团团长安宁在与CGTN的采访上称：“演出的原则是必须以事实为基础。为了给观众带来关于九一八事变的强烈视觉冲击，我们结合杂技技巧尝试了一种全新的表演方式。”

The 14-year Japanese invasion resulted in over 35 million casualties among Chinese troops and civilians. By commemorating the September 18 Incident, the Chinese people reaffirm their commitment to never forget this dark chapter in history and prevent it being repeated.

14年抗战期间，中国军民死伤3500万人以上。通过纪念“九一八”事变，中国人民重申承诺，永远不会忘却这段黑暗历史，并防止悲剧重演。
