Race to the Sea: Battle of the Yser

Twenty German battalions attack the four French and Belgian battalions in Dixmunde, finally forcing them to retreat west across the Yser. The retreating Allied troops destroy the bridges across the Yser and the Germans make no real progress on this front for the rest of the war.

Second battle of Warsaw

The German Ninth Army completes its move from East Prussia to Silesia, ready to attack the right flank of a Russian force advancing west towards German Silesia. The initial German attack disrupts the Russian right wing and 12,000 prisoners are captured.
