Germans Quit Slay Fortress in Caucasus Front
German forces begin evacuating Latsi fortress in Volhynia as Russian offensives drive from the southwest. Four thousand prisoners arrive, with reports of vast stores and munitions moving as Slavs press along the eastern front toward Bessarabia and eastern Galicia. Caucasus drives continue against the Turks along the 100 mile front, aiming to prevent a junction with British forces. Dvinsk authorities, fearing German moves along the Dvina, are ordered to remain vigilant and return from Pohoy. The State Department renews warnings for Americans to stay out of Mexico amid unsettled conditions there.
