Naktong River Battles Shift in Korean War Fronts
Allied air raids west of the Naktong destroyed or damaged four of 11 Red tanks as North Korean forces pressed the Taegu area. Reds continued to pour troops into a bridgehead near Taegu from Hyonpung, while U.S. and South Korean units held the line. South Korean police killed 35 Reds behind British positions. The U.S. 25th Division rested near Masan as high ground along the Taegu road remained in Allied hands. Evacuation of seriously wounded from Korea halted due to the Taegu threat, with plans to resume from safer rear areas.
