A Greek Press Ministry statement which was read over the Athens radio stated:—
"Events on the Albanian front are now entering a phase of rapid developments. From the very end of the northern front dpwn to the Adriatic the Greeks are on the initiative and pushing forward with great vigour new that the Italian counter-attacks have been stemmed. Mountain heights which were claimed by the Italians to be impregnable have been captured. After a severe'artillery pounding the Greek infantry launched a bayonet attack supported by aircraft. They dislodged the enemy and drove them down in utter confusion."
