Red Army crosses Dniepr River

Dnepropetrovsk is Ours!! Go Away Bandit of Melitopol [poster at link]

On the Eastern Front... Soviet forces under Malinovsky launch crossing of the Dniepr River at Dnepropetrovsk and Dneprodzerzhinsk. Both towns fall to Soviet troops. German troops in the area have been thinned out to meet Konev’s attacks toward Krivoy Rog. German forces from the Crimea, under Kleist, have not arrived yet.
