Nazi Drive on Leningrad Moscow Slowed by Pockets
Nazi sources report German advances toward Leningrad and Moscow slowed by fierce battles southwest of Novgorod and around Smolensk. They claim large Russian forces are left behind panzer spearheads, with pockets west north and south of Smolensk and near Zhitomir delaying the German push toward key cities. Moscow endured a second night of Luftwaffe raids with significant fire and disruptions, while Soviet defenses claim no major ground gains by the Germans.
