Japan Breaks Russian Defenses on Yalu Crossing Front
Five days of fighting around Antung and Chiu Tien Cheng end with the Russians forced to abandon Antung. The Japanese 61st army under Gen. Kuroki crosses the Yalu, seizes Kurito and Kinteito islands, and pushes Russian positions back to the right bank. Japanese losses about 700, Russians over 800, with several generals wounded and many prisoners taken as Japanese artillery dominates the riverfront.
