Russians captured a German encampment, took officers and men prisoner, and by two o'clock the line broke along Lana Delluy and Goroza banka on the Zlota Lipa, ending in a complete victory after dusk.

Kavala Falls Amid World War Turmoil and Massacres
News from Sept 15 reports Kavala, a Greek seaport, captured by Bulgarians with 12,000 Greek soldiers taken prisoner and forts seized. Allied warships evacuated 1,500 Greek troops to Thasos as bombardment of Kavala forts began. Unofficial accounts speak of massacres, rioting, and pillage, with American properties at risk and the American minister notified. Serbian claims of Bulgarian first-unit capture, plus British and Romanian maneuvers across Greek Macedonia and Dobrudja, mark a broad regional crisis.
