in Cairo today about our loss of Leros
The Germans made the initial attack
by some 2500 men. The Germans
now say they have switched their
air attacks to Samos.
Yesterday at Beirut two long
meetings took place between our
minister Spears and General
Catroux.
In Southern Russia battles unequaled
for many month take place.
The Russians fell back to new
positions owing to heavy pressure
by the Germans. The success of the
Germans is a limited but
unusual one. On the other fronts in
Russia our Allies are still
advancing and they have reached
the Dnjepr north of Gomel which
place is now almost surrounded.
Inside the Dnjepr bend the Russians
have resumed fighting. American
planes have bombed enemy positions
on Bougainville. 8 enemy planes were
shot down. American planes in China
bombed Hong Kong. All planes returned.
More reports are coming in about
sabotage in France.
