The clash broke out on Thursday after the KIA ambushed a convoy of the Kachin state Transport Minister on a highway.

周四，克钦独立军在高速公路上伏击了克钦邦运输部长的车队。

Just in case you're wondering: " killed in action, KIA" is another expression.

以防万一你想知道：“阵亡，起亚”是另一种表达方式。

So if I go fighting and I'm killed, that's what the military lists me as, " KIA" .

所以如果我去打仗而被杀，军方将我列为“KIA” 。

For more than a week, the Burmese army has been trying to take the hilltop of KIA in battles reminiscent of the First World War.

一周多以来，缅甸部队试图占领克钦独立军的山头，双方的战斗很激烈，让人想起第一次世界大战。

So if I'm a soldier and my enemy catches me and holds me as a hostage, I'm a POW. " KIA" means " killed in action" .

因此，如果我是一名士兵，而我的敌人抓住了我并将我扣为人质，那么我就是一名战俘。 “KIA”的意思是“阵亡”。
