LAOS
Communist forces in the panhandle are.keeping
pressure on government units operating.againsttheir
supply lines. On 11 October, North Vietnamese and
Pathet Lao troops overran a small outpost-on the -
northeastern edge of the Bolovens Plateau overlook,?
ing Route 16. Farther south on the plateau, enemy
units continued to probe the defenses around Site
26 near Attopeu-, but governmentforces held their
ground.
The government withdrawal from the Toum-
lane Valley, noted in yesterday's Daily
Brief, was not caused by enemy pressure.
The units had completed more than a month
of successful harassment operations, dur-
ing which they destroyed enemy supplies
and mined about 25 miles of Route 23 in
anticipation of increased Communist supply
movements during the dry season.
