North Vietnamese advance and Cambodian retreat near Phnom Penh
North Vietnamese troops pushed the Cambodian Army back from Bat Doeung, 16 miles northwest of Phnom Penh, with about 50 Cambodians killed or wounded. Around 150 fled to safety at Phnom Base after two days of fierce fighting. The retreat followed a collapsed northeast front and expanding Vietnamese control along Highway 6. In Saigon, U.S. Navy airstrikes against the Ho Chi Minh trail in Laos intensified, with carriers Enterprise and Constellation directing over 100 planes daily toward the supply route.
