KUBAN EVACUATION
Germans Leave Temryuk (Received September 28, 5.15 p.m.) LONDON, September 27. Russian reports from the extreme southern front say that hopes of escape are fading for all but a minority of the Germans struggling to evacuate the Kuban, where the Russians are continuing to break German resistance. Tonight’s Moscow communique reports that the Germans have evacuated lemryuk in the Kuban. Temryuk was the last port of any size left to the Germans. Since their loss ot Novorossisk and Anapa they have been using it to get their troops away to the Crimea, across the Kerch Strait. The German overseas radio claimed that the evacuation of Temryuk, the last German-held Kuban port, was unnoticed by the Russians. The town was thoroughly demolished, it added.
