MRDEVAR TAKES SORN'S OUTER ROAD POSTS

Garabech holds the crossing as the familiar battle resumes.

By GNN CORRESPONDENTS

SORN — Medevar troops
have captured outer road
posts west of the crossing
after a concentrated attack
Garabech defenders
withdrew to stronger
positions around the bridge
approaches, which remain
in their hands.

The loss exposes
additional sections of the
supply road to observation
and fire, Garabech
engineers are improving
alternate tracks while
reserves move into
positions behind the main
defenses.

The latest change again
places the outer approach
under Medevar pressure
without deciding the
crossing itself. Both
armies are reinforcing
ground already damaged
by repeated offensives,
with the bridge continuing
to draw men and
equipment into the same
narrow sector.
