Ghost town in Vietnam Tan Chau besieged by shelling and fear
In Tan Chau near the Cambodia border, most shops are padlocked as residents flee after three weeks of shelling by Communist batteries. About four fifths of the 30 000 population have left, with over 80 dead and 260 wounded. U.S. officials say shelling aims to harass South Vietnamese troops before a possible occupation, while a local soldier calls it a pilot project to drive residents away. The town’s markets and industries have collapsed as fear and destruction spread.
