This place was attacked yesterday by Flying Fortresses. One plane is missing. General Alexander saw a first visit to Palermo, the Sicilian capital and visited also the bishop there who has agreed to co-operate with us. The Americans announced a little while ago that Flying Fortresses had today bombed industrial targets in Germany. Further details are not yet available but the Germans say that Bonn was bombed. Last night one town in the country got a sharp attack. During July 167 civilians were killed in this country by air raids and 210 people injured. Mr. Churchill arrived in the USA. The Russian advance on Kharkiv makes good progress and they are closing in. There is only one line out of Kharkiv left to them i.e. to the South Okhtyrka has been captured. In the S.W.
