10 miles.
In the latest battles between 5000
and 6000 German troops have died. 110 tanks and
82 planes were destroyed resp. shot down
yesterday.
3 supply ships were lost by the Germans
to Russian airmen.
The Germans did not impose martial
law in Denmark without opposition.
Serious trouble is reported from two
by towns but as communications
have been broken off details are not
available. Violent attacks, inspired by
the German ministry of Foreign Affairs in
German press and radio on Sweden
are reported. 10 Norwegians were shot down
by the Germans. More news has been given
about Nazi brutalities in Poland as appears
from a statement published by British and
