London, To-day.
THE AIR MINISTRY has released further details of Wednesday's air battle between R.A.F. bombers and Nazi fighters.
The planes, nine Bristol Blenheims, were recon- noitring in formation at a height of 5,000 feet when they were intercepted by the new fast Mes- serschmidt-110 at a point about 150 miles north- west of the German island of Borkum.

hour attacking from the front, sides and directly astern.

The formation was only broken when the engines of one British bomber were put out of action and it fell mstern; it was shot down by several Messerchmidts.
