(10 Feb 1973) RR7306A RHODESIA: SMITH VS THE GUERRILLAS
Cuts available: z033631
For the past six months African guerrillas, operating
from bases in Zambia and Mozambique have been
carrying out hit and run raids on isolated white farms
in Rhodesia's border area. In January 1973 Rhodesia
closed the border and mounted a trading blockade to
force Zambia'a President Kaunda to deal with the
guerrillas. Kaunda retaliated by closing his side of the
border, stopping copper shipments on Rhodesian
Railways, and accusing Rhodesia of aggression in the
United Nations. This report shows the aftermath of
the guerrilla attacks, talks to the victims and analyses
the political and economic issues.
