HC Deb 05 June 1967 vol 747 cc98-9W
65. Mr. Hamling

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what protests have been made to his Department concerning terrorist attacks on unarmed civilians in Aden in the last 12 months; and what reply he has made.

Mr. George Thomson

I cannot trace any specific protest. In addressing me about the situation in South Arabia generally a number of persons has deplored, as I do, these cowardly attacks of which most of the victims are Arabs and which do nothing to advance the interests of the people of the territory.

90. Mr. Fisher

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs how many terrorist incidents have occurred in Aden during the months of March, April and May of this year.

Mr. George Thomson

In March there were 107 incidents in which 9 persons were killed and 77 injured, in April 402 incidents in which 23 persons were killed and 94 injured and in May 237 incidents in which 24 persons were killed and 74 injured.
