Germans' Big Part Of Plougest Capture Referred By London
London reported a large portion of the Plogsteet capture by Germans was acknowledged with the enemy's aim to bleed the British army. The British said the Mésainés front attack was repulsed and no high ground gained, with Armentieres surrounded in ruins and a possible awkward salient forming. French and Portuguese losses included about two thousand prisoners after a withdrawal near Bethune. Paris said great mutual artillery fighting stretched from Verdun to St Mihiel with some Allied prisoners taken in a raid northwest of Rheims and continued German attacks repulsed near Hangard and Santerre.
