France orders ships to fire on attacking war craft
Paris reports France will defend Mediterranean shipping after two French vessels were attacked. A destroyer was sent toward the Balearics to protect Ain Trance and a squadron of cruisers may follow. Nine orders ban all armed forces from engaging French merchant ships at sea. The government seeks to identify aggressors and determine retaliation options. A warship has already been dispatched to the attack site as ministers stress unity between air and navy offices. London delegates resumed talks on possible open hostilities and the risk of overland advance by Spanish Loyalists.
