Summary:In Khmer, the government's fight to stave off communist domination reached its peak in May 1974, with communist troops already within shelling distance of the capital, Phnom Penh. This short but fierce engagement on the Brissac River, ten miles south of the capital, was typical of the intensity of the fighting. NOTE: Date is approximate.
