The Russians again advanced rapidly and had the most successful day on the Kharkiv front yet. Two places 30 and 40 miles west of Kharkiv were reached. 3 more stations on the rail northwest from Kharkiv were captured. Much war material and considerable territory was gained. Trostianets was captured. The only direction of escape is south and southwest of Kharkiv. In 2 days fighting 315 railway trucks with supplies were captured. Our bombers from this country were out over Germany last night. During the day road and rail targets in Northern France were attacked. 7 planes were destroyed and we lost 3. Steady progress is also reported from the Bryansk front but no change is reported from other parts of the fronts. There is no important news from Sicily since yesterday's coast to coast advance. Allied forces are closing in on Randazzo
