Mola Death Likely Slows Rebel Drive on Bilbao
The insurgent leader Gen Emilio Mola died in a plane crash and his death may delay the siege of Bilbao. The city has endured eight weeks under attack as Basque, Russian, French, German and Italian interests take sides. News from Burgos reports Mola’s body in a military hospital while Basque refugee children in England cheer a possible end to war. International groups in Moscow seek united action against intervention in Spain. Eight hundred insurgent guns faced Bilbao’s defenses, but prospects of a faster breakthrough fade with Mola gone.
