GREEK GUERRILLAS HARASS ROAD TRANSPORT
LONDON, March 15,
Guerrillas are so active in northern Greece that Axis road transport is confined to convoys which are preceded by armed motor-cyclists, while patrols cover the flanks, says the Ankara cox-respondent of the British United Press. Machine-guns are mounted on top of the lorries, and most convoys include a light field-gun. Guerrillas are besieging the Italian garrison in the town of Kastoria, in Macedonia. A total of 145 hostages were executed after saboteurs blew up a chemical factory at Ketherimini, near Salonika, and also a railway bridge in the same vicinity.
