Government. forces have made substantial progress in expanding
the perimeters around Kampot. Troops pushed out approximately 500
meters to the north and 800 meters to the west. Progress to the
southeast reportedly has opened the river for resupply.
Meanwhile, government troops abandoned Kaoh Krabei, an outpost
on the Bassac River 5 miles southeast of Takhmau, under enemy
pressure. So far, only 74 of the approximately 200-man garrison
have arrived back at Takhmau. Steady but inconclusive fighting has
been going on in the region for several weeks. The government has
substantial blocking forces between this area and Phnom Penh.
