Damage And Confusion Over A Wide Area

THE AIR MINISTRY announce that tanks, armour- ed vehicles and troop concentrations forming the vanguard of the enemy's advance towards the French Channel ports were again heavily bombed by strong forces of Blenheim aircraft. For more than six hours until the gathering dusk made recognition of troop movements impossi- ble, relays of aircraft kept up an almost continu- ous assault with bombs and machine-guns, caus- ing damage and confusion over a wide area.
Among the first targets successfully
attacked in the afternoon was a
column of lorries and armoured fight- ing vehicles caught on the move.
Direct hits were scored on the lorries by six Blenheims attacking Individually, and bombs were seen
