Cleanup of Greek Rebels Near End of Summer Offensive
Greek officials and Col. James F. Brittingham of the U.S. military advisory group say the summer offensive against Communist guerrillas is nearly over with a planned victory within 10 days. About 5000 rebels remain in Grammos region as guerilla areas shrink to nine square miles. Most rebels are expected to retreat to Albania, where officials warn Albania may refuse to disarm. Albanian border incursions and joint brigade activity are cited as ongoing concerns.
