Iran claims guards stopped
Iraqi assault in Mawat area
NICOSIA, Cyprus (AP) — Iran claimed Wednesday
its Revolutionary Guards repulsed an Iraqi assault in
the Mawat region of Kurdistan along the northern
frontier, killing or wounding 3,000 men.
Iranian rebels based in Iraq said they had withdrawn
from Mehran, an Iranian town farther south on the
730-mile border war front, after a three-day offensive
in which they reported capturing tanks, missiles and
other military hardware worth $2 billion.
Tehran radio said at least 15 Iraqi tanks were de
stroyed and ammunition dumps set ablaze Tuesday in
the Kurdestan battle. There was no independent con
firmation and no comment from Baghdad.
Iraqi forces in recent weeks have driven the Iranians
out of territory captured in southern Iraq earlier in the
8-vear-old war. and have pressed Iranian forces in the
Kurdistan mountains of northern Iraq for 10 days.
Fighting has increased steadily in the north, where
the Iraqis claimed Friday to have recaptured several
strategic peaks and the town of Mawat, all seized by
Iran last summer.
Tehran radio said Iranian fighter-bombers attacked
troop and armor concentratons in the Mawat region on
Wednesday, “inflicting heavy losses.”
On April 16, Iraq seized the initiative in the stale
mated land war with an assault that recaptured the Faw
Peninsula in southern Iraq, ending two years of Iranian
occupation.
Dispatches from Tehran said the three-pronged as
sault was carried out by Iraqi regulars supported by
fighter-bombers dropping chemical bombs.
Democracy plays role in program
SUMY, U.S.S.R. (AP) — Na-
dezhda Nuzhnaya will bid her son
and husband goodbye Thursday
and board a train for Moscow. This
month, the woman who paints tea
sets for a living is one of the 5,000
most important people in the Soviet
Union.
Nuzhnaya, 36, has been chosen to
represent her fellow Communist
Party members in the northern Uk
raine at a national party conference,
the first in 47 years, that will pass
judgment on a program designed to
make Soviet political life more dem
ocratic.
“This will be one of the most im
portant events in my life,” she said.
“But it will also be an important
event for every Communist, for ev
ery citizen of our country.”
Nuzhnaya, whose candidacy was
supported by co-workers in the por
celain factory where she has worked
for 19 years, is one of the winners in
a Soviet electoral process unlike any
in recent memory, but whose choices
often seem to differ little from past
party elections.
Along with Nuzhnaya, fully half
of the Communists chosen to rep
resent the Sumy region in the south
eastern Ukraine are party and gov
ernment bureaucrats whose
privileges and perks would be
deeply affected if the reforms pro
posed for the conference are en
acted.
In recent weeks, protests over bal
lot-rigging by party apparatchiks
and some of the delegates chosen for
the conference has brought Soviet
citizens into the streets from the Pa
cific Ocean island of Sakhalin to the
Baltic republic of Estonia.
“By my estimate, 90 to 95 percent
of the delegates are of the same type
that have attended past party meet
ings,” said a diplomat. "True, the
other 5 or 10 percent may give us
some fireworks.”
Who exactly will attend the con
ference that convenes Tuesday in
the Kremlin is crucial because the
more than 5,000 delegates will Ik*
asked to vote on proposals that
would more firmly separate party
from state and limit apparatchiks to
two five-year terms in office.
In a May 7 speech, Mikhail S. Gor
bachev ordered that there be no at
tempt, as in the past, to impose quo
tas from above for “so many
workers, so many peasants, so many
woman, and so on.” The sole crite
rion, the Communist Party chief in
sisted, was that delegates he "active
supporters of perestroika."
