Eastern FrontSOUTHERN SECTORFierce battles rage in Hungary. Group Pliev has penetrated nearly 70 miles behind the German front and is closing in on Karcag. The 6th Tank Army though is held up by elements of the German 6th Army near Oradea while the 46th Army crosses the Tisza River near Szeged. The 57th Army of the 3rd Ukrainian Front attacks across the Morava River to seize Velika Plana. This move severs the railway line between Belgrade and Nis. The 1st Bulgarian Army begins to attack elements of Army Group E at Nis, as did Tito's XIII Corps. |
