report says:
Army of the East: In the Cerna re-
gion the battle which has been pro-
ceeding for the last two days continues
with violence. 1t is increasingly APP
parent that the engagement is a bril-
liant success for our arms.
Supported by intense fire from the
French artillery Serbian troops in the
loop of the Cerna gained n fresh vic
tory over the Bulgar-German forces,
who were obliged to abandon after a
sanguinary fight the village of lven,
and to fall back for distance OF three
kilometres to the north Of that place
under the victorious pressure of our
allies. Five counter attacks we're de-
livered by the enemy who, defending
himself obstinately, was unable 20
check our advance.
Smashed by our artillery fire in the
centre and attacked with the bayonet
by Serbian infantry the enemy was
obliged TO fall back in disorder, having
sustained considerable loss. Further
to the west Serbian forces to which
had been added contingents of French
infantry, extended their progress to
the north of Velyeselo Gin the Cerna
River BEND.
More than 1000 prisoners so far
have been counted. Sixteen more guns
were captured on the ground aban-
doned by the enemy. Since September
II. when our offensive began. the Ger
mans and Bulgsrians have left in the
hands of the Entente allies 5000 pris-
oners, seventy-two cannon and fifty
three machine guns.
