AUSTRO-ITALIAN OPERATIONS.
ITALIANS DOMINATE IMPORTANT POSITIONS. (Received Last Night, 5.5 o'clock.) ROME, July 3. The Italians dominate Plezzo on its four .sides. The whole of the Tarbic-Plezzo region is invested, giving the Italians complete liberty for the offensive against Tolmtno. The "Giornade d'ltalia" states that, during the operations in the Lower- Isonzo, engineers skilfully bridged the river at several points. The passage of troops was effected on June 21st, and the artillery bombarded the enemy's positions on the 23rd. They destroyed a gigantic dyke, and all trendies were blown up with mines. Our Infantry occupied the Austrian positions, and have held on tenaciously, despite their exposed situation.
