LAOS
No major action was reported in the Bolovens
Plateau area over the weekend as both sides evidently
seek to recover from last week's heavy fighting. Sev-
eral government units that had been cut off filtered
back to friendly lines, but no firm casualty figures
have yet been reported. ,
It is not clear whether the government ef-
fort to retake the central portion of the
Bolovens will now be postponed. The Com-
munists have also taken heavy losses as im-
proved weather has facilitated US and Lao-
tian air, strikes.
In the central panhandle, additional North Viet-
namese troops may be pulling back from the.Dong5 Hene
area. Government irregular forces are moving east-
ward, and some patrols have moved into the outskirts
of Dong Hene. Heavy rains are hampering overland
movement, however, and it may be some time before
government troops can take additional advantage of
the reduction of Communist troop strength along
Route 9.
In north Laos, reinforcements have been moved
into the Bouam Long guerrilla base, which has been
under heavy pressure for several weeks. yang Pao's
troops are still located on the southern portion of
the Plaine des Jarres and have encountered only light
enemy. resistance. ?They continue to uncover small
enemy supply caches, but have not yet moved toward
their primary objective, the high ground just west
of the Plaine.
