据纽约时报中文网记者郭莉莉 2026 年 8 月 28 日报导，当尼泊尔的记者们正在收集关于周三这场夺命洪水的目击者证词和最新信息时，中国边境一侧的景象截然不同。 到周四，当地居民拍摄并上传到网上的视频——包括一段广泛传播的、显示泥石流吞没中国西藏吉隆县一个边境口岸的片段——已在中国社交媒体平台上遭到审查。吉隆县有500多人失踪，这个约2000人口的县已有三人确认遇难。对于这个以农村为主的地区哪些村庄和定居点受灾，官方没有给出任何细节。 唯一的信息来自中国政府控制的官方媒体，其报道主要集中在救援工作上。这些媒体报道称，政府已向该地区派遣了军队和其他应急人员，以及无人机和直升机。中共官方报纸《人民日报》周四在头版刊登了一篇报道，称中国领导人习近平下令全力帮助吉隆的受灾群众。 审查和严格的信息控制在中国很普遍，但在西藏尤为突出——这里自20世纪50年代以来一直处于中国控制之下，曾爆发过要求更多自治权的抗议活动。 除了经过严格安排的政府参观团外，外国记者不允许进入西藏。西藏官员加强了对藏传佛教僧尼的限制，并扩大了警力，以防止任何新的抗议活动。据人权活动人士称，该地区的藏人可能因与记者交谈或在网上发布任何被视为违背政府说法的内容而被拘留或逮捕。 国际声援西藏运动总干事莱恩·菲奥雷西表示，其结果是“只有中国政府控制着信息流动”。在灾难情况下，这意味着当地居民因害怕受到惩罚而不会发布关于人员被困地点或受灾最严重地区的信息。 “如果人们害怕分享这些信息，或者他们的帖子被删除，”他说，“那么可能有用的信息就无法到达家属、救援人员或更广泛的公众手中。” 来源：纽约时报中文网 The post 中国信息管控或阻碍西藏洪水救援 first appeared on CTA Official Site in Chinese.
