Aden crisis
Aden crisis; ***ALSO AVAILABLE AS FS050567006***YEMEN: Aden:CMS HART IN STREET SOF: An ugly new aspect of the gang warfare between FLOSY and the NLF, the rival terrorist organisations, is just beginning to show itself in the troubled streets of Aden. FLOSY; PULL OUT TO LMS SOF: is putting into operation a system of instant Court Martials. Over the past few weeks the evidence has beenthat most of the victims of the street assassinations have been FLOSY members gunned down by NLF commandoes. That's what all of the evidence seems to show. For a tine FLOSY stood back and said it would not retaliate, but then when the number of assassinations was stepped up to 2 and 3 a day a large number of FLOSY sympathisers, some of them very prominent people, and FLOSY members fled in fear of their lives to Yemen, toCairo, to Beirut, two even gent to Britain. For a few days then FLOSY was quite literally on the run, it was losing face, there was open talk that the NLF quite definitely was emerging as the number one Nationalist group. And it was against this background that FLOSY decided to hit back hard. It's systems of instant Court Martials have been in operation now for 2 days and 2 nights. The first NLF man to be killed by it was gunned down here outside the Eastern Bank, he was approached and stopped by 3 men. One of them read him a FLOSY proclamation, a judgement and a sentence. And then the NLF man was shot down. It all happened in 30 seconds. And that seems to be the pattern now, and it's happening 2 and 3 times a day: Steamer Point:MS Arabs lined up against wall; 2 Lancashire Regt soldiers with with (holding rifles)NS Arabs down steps; soldier follows:BV Arabs lined up against wall; searched: NEG: 16mm: Dhillon: 2.26 mins: 91 ft:Tx 5.5.67/8.55pm:
