P110 CEEFAX 110 Thu 24 Jan 22:59/56 MAJOR SAYS LAND BATTLE WILL TAKE PLACE The Prime Minister has said that he expects a land battle will be needed in the Gulf war. But John Major, addressing the 1922 Committee of Tory backbenchers, said it would not take place until Iraqi forces were sufficiently weakened to minimisj Allied casualties. An assessment of the first few days of the Allied campaign suggested that it was going according to plan. But he stressed that it was impossible to say when the war would end, and it would be at least "quite a few weeks". 101War headlines 130Gulf military Next News Newswatch GulfIndex Latest
