Przemysl Falls to Austrians After Siege Endgame
After a three week siege Przemysl in Galicia capitulated to Austrians. The fortress held for 201 days with about 120000 Austrian troops surrendering including 2600 officers. Russians withdrew toward Galicia as Przemysl’s loss shifts pressure from Cracow and opens paths to Silesia and Hungary. The event coincides with wider Allied political moves as Italy enters the war and Asquith speaks in the Commons.
