ICRC Relief Actions. —In the different areas in which it is able to take action, the International Committee of the Red Cross is pursuing its efforts on behalf of victims of the Vietnam conflict. It is co-operating closely with the Swiss Red Cross, whose medical team has arrived in Saigon. This consists of a group of eight doctors and nurses who will be working at the Kontum hospital on the high central plateau. Mr. André Durand, delegate general in Asia, has gone to Saigon to take part in its installation.
