PANZER DIVISION
SOUTH OF COAST ROAD BUT BEING PUSHED NORTH. ROMMEL STILL USING MANY MINES. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 11.0 a.m.) RUGBY, January 25. “The Fifteenth Panzer Division is still operating south of the coast road, but we are gradually pushing them out towards the North,’ a Cairo correspondent reports. The indications are that Rommel, who seems to have an inexhaustible quantity of mines, is still heavily mining road communications, but he must now find greater difficulty in receiving supplies, as practically all must come from Susse and Bizerta, and a smaller amount from Tunis,” the correspondent states. “He can also still use Zuara, where the capacity, however, is small.” The main Allied air effort yesterday, states a Cairo despatch, was a day-long bombing of ships endeavouring to escape from Zuara. Large formations tOok part. American Mitchells bombed sixty miles over the Tunisian border.
