NIGHT RAID BY R.A.F. SHIPS ATTACKED OFF DUTCH COAST. GERMAN FIGHTING PLANES HELD IN WEST. LONDON, October 15. British bombers last night attacked the docks at Le Havre, the objectives including quays and shipping in the harbour. Enemy shipping off the Dutch coast was also attacked. Our fighters destroyed five enemy fighters. From these
