Situation in Bay of Bengal unchanged according to the U.S. Joint Intelligence Committee. Daily summary dated 14 April 1942

An item reported that that the situation in the Bay of Bengal was unchanged. Some of the larger Japanese ships seemed recently to be returned to Singapore. Attacks on Allied merchant ships appeared to have fallen off which could be caused by the British suspending the merchant traffic. Some Japanese merchant ships moved to the Andaman Islands. There was however no indication that these ships gathered for landing operations.
