Egypt’s Sadat: Battle Will Be Long and Bitter
Sadat said the timing of any new conflict depends on leadership, not public debate, and he pledged 1971 as the year of decision in the Middle East. He criticized U.S. policy, rejected renewed U.S.-sponsored talks, and warned of reliance on Soviet support while awaiting U.N. mediator Gunnar V. Jarring’s peacemaking effort.

Saigon reports the heaviest U.S. air attack on North Vietnam in over three years continues into a fourth day with no end in sight. U.S. sources deny a return to 1968 tactics, saying operations are limited duration strikes while aiding Laotian Cambodian and South Vietnamese forces. The campaign targets include antiaircraft sites and war-material stores via Mu Gia passes, with Laos and Cambodia areas also cited as flashpoints. An OH6 helicopter was shot down on the Cambodian side, two Americans wounded, marking the 8063rd U.S. aircraft loss in Indochina.
