EL SALVADOR: Military Operations
The Army is concluding operations northeast of San Salvador and
is moving against insurgents in Morazan Department.
ihere was heavy
fighting during the first stage of the offensive in the Suchitoto area,
largely involving the US-trained Atlacatl Battalion supported by
airstrikes. So far, 63 guerrillas have been killed and 95 prisoners are
requesting amnesty, as compared with government losses of 64 killed
or wounded. In Morazan, two other Army battalions reportedly have
begun an operation south of the Torola River.
Comment: The fighting near Suchitoto�long a target of the
guerrillas�may have stemmed from a decision to attack the Atlacatl
Battalion.
\ The battalion, however, appears to have more than held
its own.
