Allies Make Gains on All Fronts in World War I
The Allies advance on multiple fronts with Allied forces capturing prisoners and weapons on the Somme. French troops seize 22,000 prisoners and 104 guns, Italian forces push on in Trentino, and Russian losses grow. While progress boosts morale, experts warn the war will continue for months and emphasize German deceit. A German submarine voyage to the U S is noted, but blockade risk remains limited by submarine capacity.
