Gen. MacArthur's Special Report to the United Nations,
November 6, 1950
I herewith submit a special report of the United Nations Command
operations in Korea which I believe should be brought to the attention of
the United Nations.
The United Nations forces in Korea are continuing their drive to the
north and their efforts to destroy further the effectiveness of the enemy
as a fighting force are proving successful. However, presently in certain
areas of Korea, the United Nations forces are meeting a new foe. It is
apparent to our fighting forces, and our intelligence agencies have con-
firmed this fact, that the United Nations are presently in hostile contact
with Chinese Communist military units deployed for action against the
forces of the United Nations Command. Hereafter, in summary form, are
confirmed intelligence reports substantiating the fact that forces other
than Korean are resisting our efforts to carry out the resolutions of
the United Nations.
(General MacArthur's report then detailed twelve reports of the ap-
pearance of Chinese Communist units, antiaircraft fire from Chinese bat-
teries, and attacks by Chinese planes.)
The continued employment of Chinese Communist forces in Korea and
the hostile attitude assumed by such forces, either inside or outside
Korea, are matters which it is incumbent upon me to bring at once to the
attention of the United Nations.
-- The New York Times, November 7, 1950
