Pakistanis seek truce as Dacca defense crumbles
The Pakistani military and civil commanders in Dacca asked India for a cease-fire as Indian armor artillery and air power battered the East Pakistan capital leaving flames and heavy casualties. India sent surrender terms to Lt Gen A A K Niazi and announced a bombing pause with a five hour ultimatum. Reports cite heavy casualties in Dacca where 15 000 to 20 000 Pakistani troops and thousands of civilians remain. US forces reportedly stationed near Bay of Bengal to rescue Americans if needed. War extends to Kashmir and other East Pakistan areas amid political efforts at the United Nations.
