The Pentagon announced Thursday that Russian ships carrying 42 jet bombers the total number the Russians said were in -Cuba--had been sighted off the! Cuban coast. The announcement came on the 20th day after Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev promised to get the bombers out within 30 days. With the removal of the missiles and bombers Russia is expected to claim that it has lived up-to its part of the bargain and to demand the United States give formal assurances against an invasion of Cuba. But U.S.

There has been no agreement for United Nations vrification of the removal of weapons or assurances against their reentry which the letters called for. Though Soviet military personnel- were never included in Presi- deijt Kennedy's list of "offensive" military forces in Cuba, the administration apparently plans to raise the issue with Russia of continued presence there. Estimates of the number of Soviet military personnel which entered Cuba during the offensive weapons buildup run as high as 13,000.
