War News Roundup From Fronts Across The World
United Press dispatches from London report activity at all points but no decisive battles yet. German and Allied forces reportedly clash across multiple theaters with new movements anticipated. Berlin claims German troops routed British forces in Africa and captured two companies along with arms and ammunition. British forces are said to have deployed a large mobile force toward Hafizku in Afghanistan. Berlin also asserts significant troop concentrations in the Dardanelles region as Allied operations near a possible start. Constantinople notes a renewed attempt to pierce the Straits by British and French torpedo boats, repelled with damage. A Berlin bulletin claims twenty thousand Allied troops are assembling to aid the Dardanelles effort, while French and Allied actions along the western fronts include repelled German assaults and bombardments around Bruges and Ypres. Amsterdam cites French air raids on Candey and Lovrich, with civilian casualties.
