Guerrillas killed at least six Salvadoran soldiers in attacks near San Salvador. Four soldiers guarding a sugar refinery in the suburb of Apopa were killed and four were wounded. In another incident, two soldiers were killed and two wounded in attacks on nearby bridges. These attacks came just hours after Salvadoran rebels killed four soldiers in their first assault on a major military base in the capital since January, 1981. Radio Venceremos, the rebels’ clandestine voice, said the attacks signaled the intensification of a drive begun in September under the slogan “Death to Reagan policy--Yankees out of El Salvador.”
