最后两名失踪日本潜水者被发现还活着

Rescuers on Tuesday found two remaining Japanese women alive from a diving group that went missing last week and are trying to recover them from a cliff in a small islet off Bali.

救援人员已找到上周失踪的数名潜水者中的最后两名日本女性，正试图将她们从巴厘岛附近一小岛的悬崖上救下来。

They were part of a group of seven Japanese women who didn't return from a diving trip last Friday at Nusa Lembongan. The police rescued the other five women late Monday from Manta Point diving site in Nusa Penida, near Nusa Lembongan.

上周五，一个日本潜水组织的7名女性潜水者在蓝梦岛(Nusa Lembongan)潜水后没有返回。警方周一晚间已在蓝梦岛附近的伯尼达岛(Nusa Penida)的潜水点Manta Point救出了另外五名失踪的女性。

'The two were found by local fishermen late Monday around one kilometer east of the location where the five people were found,' said Nyoman Suarsika, the chief of the police encompassing the area.

负责该区域的警察局长Nyoman Suarsika表示，上述两名女性是周一晚间在这五名女性被发现地点以东1公里的地方被当地渔民发现的。

Mr. Suarsika said the two women were spotted on a steep cliff around five meters above the pounding water.

Suarsika称，这两名女性被发现困在一个陡峭的悬崖上，悬崖下约5米就是海浪汹涌的水面。

Authorities couldn't rescue the women immediately Monday night because of darkness.

由于当时为夜间四处一片漆黑，救援者周一晚间未能立即将两名女性救下来。

'The location is very challenging and it's not safe to conduct a rescue operation,' Mr. Suarsika said, adding the corals make it difficult for boat to get close to the two survivors.

Suarsika表示，二人的被困地点非常险峻，救援难度很大，贸然实施恐有危险。他还称，珊瑚礁使得船只难以靠近这两名被困者。

'We are still assessing if we can pluck them with helicopters,' he said

他表示，警方还在评估是否能动用直升机从空中将她们救下来。
