In France on August 22 British forces advanced along a broad front near Arras and toward the Somme, reportedly taking 1000 prisoners and forcing German withdrawals. Albert is said to have fallen to British hands, with heavy fighting continuing along the Arras to Albert railway and surrounding embankments. Tanks aided advances as soldiers fought under a scorching sun, many without upper garments, while Austrian officers were among the captured.
