New Drive Looms As Enemy Losses Estimated 75000
United Nations officials hailed a great victory after the Red Spring offensive stalled with more than 75,000 Communist casualties in nine days. Flushed by naval air strikes, UN forces blasted floodgates on the Pukhan and Han rivers and disrupted river crossings. Advanced patrols scouted east of Seoul while Red attempts to block roads faltered. The commander cautioned the drive is not over and Communist capability remains to strike again.
