Persian Armies Press Babylon as Warsaw and Potsdam News
A long London dispatch from April 26 N.S. reports Persian forces under Kouli-Kan closing on Babylon while Ottoman defenses at the city weaken. Topal Osman is authorized to offer peace terms to prevent a sack, and a 10,000-strong Janissary march is ordered to Persia. Elsewhere, Polish Dyet convocation pledges a native Polish king, while Warsaw, Dantzick, and Berlin gossip mix with royal nuptials and court theatrics across Europe.
