IN THE CAUCASUS
FURTHER GAINS CLAIMED BY GERMANS BETWEEN VOLGA AND DON. APPROACH TO NOVOROSSISK. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 11.50 a.m.) LONDON, August 13. A German communique claims that the Germans, despite stubborn resistance, pushed back the Russians in the Caucasus area, captured Elistra and gained further ground between the Volga and the Don. The Vichy radio declares that the Germans have reached Krymskaya and are now in contact with the Russian lines of resistance before Novorossisk itself. The Germans, it is added, captured Batalpashinsk, after hard fighting, and the Axis forces have reached a point 28 miles from Grozny.
