France’s high-speed rail network was hit by "malicious acts" including arson attacks that have disrupted the transport system, train operator SNCF said Friday, hours before the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics.

在巴黎奧運會舉行開幕式前數小時，法國鐵路營運商「法國國家鐵路公司」（SNCF）週五表示，法國高速鐵路網遭到包括縱火在內的「惡意行為」攻擊，擾亂運輸系統。

"This is a massive attack on a large scale to paralyse the TGV network," SNCF told AFP, adding that many routes will have to be cancelled and the situation would last "at least all weekend while repairs are conducted".

「這是一次大規模攻擊，要癱瘓TGV高鐵網」，法國國鐵告訴法新社，並且補充說，許多路線將不得不取消，這種情況將「持續至少整個週末，在這期間進行修復」。

"SNCF was the victim of several simultaneous malicious acts overnight," the national train operator said, adding that the attacks affected its Atlantic, northern and eastern lines.

「SNCF一夜之間遭到多起同時發生的惡意行為所害」，這家國營鐵路營運商說，並表示這些攻擊影響其大西洋、北部和東部線路。
