South African troops ventured into Angola for the third time since a formal withdrawal in April, killing at least six black guerrillas and capturing weapons, South Africa’s television reported. The South African Broadcasting Corp. based its report on information from “diplomatic sources in Africa.” South African officials declined to comment on the report. The report said the troops entered Angola from Namibia during the weekend in pursuit of rebels belonging to the South West Africa People’s Organization. The South African troops were reported still in the country.
