1. An air observation post is located on a house in the northern section of
Veslets (N 41-23, E 25-18), Momchilgrad Okeliya. The poet is guarded by
four troops and has a telephone. An antenna is mounted on top of the house.
A 12-4eter wooden tower is located next to the house. A sentry with a sub-
machine gun and binoculars is at the tower at all times. It is poasible
that the post has a radio station because soldiers were seen bringing storage
batteries from Zlatograd.
2. Another air observation post is located in a three-story building near Batak
(N 41-57, E 24-13), Peshtera Okoliya. It is east of the crossing of the
Batak-Rakitovo and Batak-Dospat roads. The post has 3-4 soldiers and an
antenna mounted on top of the building.
