COMPLETE ROUT
FACED BY GERMAN ARMY IN NEAR FUTURE DECLARATION BY MOSCOW RADIO. PROSPECT OF CUTTING OFF CRIMEA. (By Telegraph—(Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.40 p.m.) LONDON, October 28. The battle for Krivoi Rog is at present a tremendous slogging match. Moscow correspondents emphasise the tremendous potential danger of General Tolbukhin’s lightning triple advances from Melitopol towards the Dnieper. The threat of a complete cutting eff of the Crimea is growing hourly as the Red Army mechanised forces sweep unchecked across the Nogaisk Steppe. The German News Agency declared: “In view of the Red Army’s overwhelming superiority in men and materials, the German forces west of Melitopol have withdrawn to new lines farther westward and northward.” The Moscow radio stated that the German Army faces a complete rout in the near future.
