Pravda reports:
"Massive airstrikes are reported against Romanian troops in southern Transylvania, as Hungarian forces continue on their march for victory towards Cluj-Napoca. It seems that Luftwaffe activity intensified recently, what might be a sign of growing German presence in the theatre of operations.
Army sources reported that a considerable Romanian unit surrendered today as important town of Aiud fell back into the hands of their rightful owners.

In other news: an apparent coup d'état in Bulgaria overthrew the government of Konstantin Muraviev after one week in power and replaced it with a government of the Fatherland Front led by Kimon Georgiev. The Fatherland Front is known for its pro-Soviet sympathy and the staged coup does not seem to be a coincidence given the recent armistice between the Bulgaria and USSR. Royal Navy reports that german submarine U-484 was depth charged and sunk northwest of Ireland by British warships - the corvette HMS Portchester Castle and the frigate HMS Helmsdale. This day is not considered successful for the Kriegsmarine, as another submarine U-865 is considered lost to unknown causes after leaving Trondheim in occupied Norway. Meanwhile, Miss District of Columbia Venus Ramey was crowned Miss America 1944.
