Victorious Battle With Infidels Near Kodima River
An officer’s detailed report from Belgrade dated July 25 describes a major battle as Russian and allied forces under Rumanzoff and Biron repelled an Ottoman force at the Kodima River. The army crossed by boats, held strong defensive positions, and routed the enemy on the river heights with heavy casualties reported by the infidels. The victory, achieved after five hours of combat, left the Russian left wing unbroken and the army pursuing retreating foes to the Kodima. Additional notes mention reinforcements near Sabatsch and movements toward the Danube, with Turks massing near Widdin and Bosnian troops redeploying to join the grand Ottoman army.
