Bolivia plans assault on Guevara linked guerrillas
Bolivian army sources say a major assault against guerrilla forces possibly led by Ernesto Guevara was planned in three mountain and jungle zones. Interim Armed Forces Chief Gen Jorge Belmonte Ardiles said the guerrillas broke after a stiff battle, with casualties on both sides, as Bolivian warplanes bombed a marching column toward the Paraguayan frontier. He also claimed Guevara organized the army with possible Cuban, European, and Chinese Communist elements.
