TTTTY SENDER LONDON /Czech/: Greek communiqué:The troops on the Epirus front, having somewhat taken their advanced posts, maintained their opinions during the whole of yesterday and stopped the movements of various enemy lolons through their fury. Rest on the rest of the fronts. On Patras and two other cities, a number of unplanned air raids on non-military targets were carried out. A Greek plane was shot down. According to unconfirmed reports aind arrived in the last days from Russia in *rechenland l34 Russian military aircraft. The planes are to be promoted in 2 transports by rail through Greece. Eg is about unspecified 4o bombers, the rest are hunting planes. In Patras have already been rescued from the debris. There were so many deaths in this city, because the population believed to be safe from air attacks, because it is an unpaved city. Germany is trying to stop the war between Greece and Italy and move Girechenland to the task of resistance. In Berlin, it is hoped that Greece will declare that the resistance is futile and that it will join the new German European order without bloodshed. In Greece, these German attempts are considered with contempt. In Athens, it is explained that the longer Italy hesitates with a decisive action, the clearer it is to see the surprise of the axis about the resistance of Greece. Papews neğh Berlin's return and the rumors about an imminent ultimatum to Turkey attract the greatest attention in general. It is hard to believe that the Greek decision to resist will lead Germany to move itself towards a military action in the Balkans. Hitler himself will intervene if the Italian-Greek conflict lasts longer or if Germany is unable to move Greece towards a peace. Hitler would probably try to talk about Bulgaria's participation in the war. However, this would lead to Turkey's entry into war. Therefore, Hitler tries to neutralize Turkey. In Athens, the Under-Secretary of State in the Niklidis Ministry of Information gave a speech to the people, in which he, among other things, spoke. We are fighting for the lives of all those who want to live in freedom at this crucial moment. We are struggling with weak forces and we have been able to defeat the enemy so far.
