British Breakthrough across Somme Front in Major Offensive
British forces launched a 20 mile Somme offensive at 7 30 am after a savage hour long bombardment. The attack pierced the first line at several points with French support. Large numbers of prisoners were taken as British infantry advanced under heavy shellfire and smoke while new trench mortars aided by breaking wire entanglements.
