Fighting Rages Around Trang Bom and Key Highways Near Saigon
U S air losses rose to 78 planes and 85 airmen missing as renewed bombing of North Vietnam continues. Fighting persists around Trang Bom on Highway 1, near Highway 4 in the Mekong Delta, and along Highway 13 north of Lai Khe. South Vietnamese reinforcements move to defend these vital supply routes while U S fighter bombers and B 52s support government troops. The actions appear timed to mark the 27th anniversary of postwar uprisings against French rule in Indochina.

Moroccan King accuses Oufkir of assassination plot
King Hassan II blamed Gen. Mohammed Oufkir for an attempted coup aimed at installing himself regent for the king’s young son. Hassan renamed the armed forces head and dismissed Oufkir as defense minister, saying the officer later died after the failed plane attack near Tetuan. The king voiced distrust, cited past France accusations, and contrasted his stance with prior, broader black leadership praise. A separate note from Wellington, New Zealand, reported a survey ranking Tuesday as safest on the roads and Saturday as most dangerous.
