Terrifying new footage shows Shinzo Abe's bodyguards try to deflect assassin's bullets with BRIEFCASES as former PM freezes when first shot is fired... then slumps when fatal bullet hits

视频显示，安倍晋三的保镖试图用公文包挡刺客的子弹，这位前首相在第一枪打响时愣住了，然后在遭受致命的一击后倒下

This is the shocking moment former Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe was shot dead - revealing how oblivious security guards tried to block bullets with their briefcases after realising too late that he was under attack.

日本前首相安倍晋三被枪杀令人震惊，暴露出毫无察觉的保安人员在意识到他遭到袭击时反应迟钝，用公文包挡子弹。

Cameras trained on Abe as he gave a political stump speech in the city of Nara at 11.30am captured the moment the first shot was fired, missing the politician but producing a loud bang and a cloud of smoke.

上午11点30分，安倍在奈良市发表政治演说时，镜头对准了他，捕捉到了第一枪打响的瞬间。第一枪没有击中安倍，但发出了一声巨响，散发出一团烟雾。

For what feels an eternity, but in reality is just a few seconds, Abe remains on his podium as bewildered guards - who were all looking at him as he spoke - turn around and finally grasp what is happening, just a moment too late.

这一刻感觉像是永恒，但实际上只有几秒钟，安倍仍然站在讲台上，当困惑的警卫们——安倍讲话时他们都看着他——转过身来，终于明白发生了什么，只是晚了一会儿。

Panicked, they try to put themselves between Abe and 41-year-old gunman Tetsuya Yamagami, with one even flinging his briefcase in a lame attempt to stop what they all know is coming.

惊慌失措的安保人员试图挡在安倍和41岁的枪手山上彻也之间，其中一人甚至扔出了公文包，试图阻止即将发生的事情。

Abe turns too, and may have caught sight of his attacker for the briefest of moments before the second fatal shot is fired: Causing his shirt-front to ripple as pellets tear into his neck and chest, burying themselves in his heart.

安倍也转过身来，在第二枪致命射击前的一瞬间，他可能看到了袭击者：子弹穿过了他的脖子和胸部，他的衬衫前襟抖动。

He is not immediately knocked unconscious, but stumbles off the stump and collapses to his knees before slum over. Guards run to his side, and later images show how they began chest compressions in a vain attempt to revive him. He died several hours later in hospital from massive blood loss.

他并没有立即被扑倒，而是从台上摔了下来，跪倒在地。警卫们跑到他身边，后来的照片显示，他们开始进行胸部按压，但徒劳无功。几小时后，他在医院因大量失血而死亡。

Yamagami was tackled to the ground and arrested, with police saying he has confessed - telling them he wanted to kill Abe because he was a member of a 'specific organisation' that he disagreed with.

山上彻也被扑倒在地并被逮捕，警方称他已经认罪，并坦白他想杀死安倍，因为安倍是一个他反对的“特定组织”的成员。

Police say Yamagami had amassed an arsenal of home-made weapons similar to the one used in the attack at his home, along with a number of explosives which have been taken to be destroyed.

警方表示，山上囤积了大量自制武器，这些武器与他袭击时使用的武器类似，此外还有一些爆炸物，已被带走销毁。

It is not clear exactly how he learned to make the weapons, but he is a veteran of the country's defence forces, having served in the navy between 2002 and 2005.

目前尚不清楚他是如何学会制造这种武器的，他是日本自卫队的退役军人，曾在2002年至2005年期间在海上自卫队服役。

Yamagami is currently unemployed and had travelled to Nara by train, lying in wait at the station where Mr Abe was due to give his speech before launching the attack. Cops have not said how long he waited.

山上目前没有工作，他是坐火车去奈良的，在袭击安倍前，他在奈良车站埋伏着等待安倍发表演讲。警方没有透露他等了多久。

A chilling image taken just moments before Abe was killed shows Yamagami - an unassuming figure in a green t-shirt and cargo trousers - loitering just behind him.

在安倍被杀前几分钟拍摄的一张照片显示，山上正站在他身后，穿着灰色T恤和工装裤。

He's Japan's longest serving prime minister. He was a visionary who drove Japan's economy. What did the attacker gain from this? Is there no end to hate in this world. I am deeply saddened by this news.

他是日本在任时间最长的首相。他是一个有远见的人，推动了日本经济的发展。袭击者得到了什么？

在这个世界上，仇恨没有尽头吗？听到这个消息，我深感悲痛。

Showing the picture of Mr Shinzo Abe on the ground wounded or dead is tasteless and disrespectful to his family and Japan.

安倍晋三倒中枪倒在地上的照片既没品，也不尊重他的家人，也不尊重日本。

AliceAbercrombie, Glasgow, United Kingdom

Patrick Ryan, London, United Kingdom

Shinzo Abe - Japan's former prime minister was a good man and did his best for the people of Japan - This cold hearted murder is absolutely dreadful - I do know in exceptional circumstances then Japan has the right to use the death penalty - I suspect with this heinous execution crime that the threshold of the using the death penalty may be evoked. Meanwhile my prayers go out to all of Japan at this difficult moment.

安倍晋三日本前首相是一个好人，为日本人民尽了自己最大的努力。这一冷血谋杀绝对是可怕的。我知道在特殊情况下，日本有权使用死刑。这一令人发指的罪行可能会达到使用死刑的门槛。

Miranda, Scotland, United Kingdom

Don't tell me, it was a lone gunman with mental health issues. Someone didn't want him back in power but who? One of the global not-so-super powers maybe?

别告诉我，这个枪手有精神问题。有人不想让安倍重新掌权，那是谁呢？

也许是一个不算超级大国的国家?

JohnCHill, London, United Kingdom

He transformed Japan's image on the world stage. What a terrible shame. Evil knows no bounds.

他改变了日本在世界舞台上的形象。真是太无耻了，邪恶没有界限。
