Eastern FrontSOUTHERN SECTORThe 4th Ukrainian Front renews its attacks against the XLIX Mountain Corps. Despite the overwhelming forces against them, the German and Rumanian divisions stand fast. To the east the Independent Coastal Army begins its own offensive from Kerch, smashing into the V Corps. Once again the German resist with steely determination, preventing a breakthrough. The 8th Guards, 5th Shock and 6th Armies begin to attack Odessa. With only weak German and Rumanian forces opposing their advance, they take most of the city by the end of the day. |
