Scheldt Estuary
Soviet troops had taken advantage of the ice to cross the frozen canals and brushing aside the small numbers of Allied troops still available and reached the Scheldt. With Antwerp under threat the Royal Navy arrived and the cruisers HMS Superb and Devonshire opened fire on the enemy. Destroyers also made short work of the small number of boats the Soviets were able to capture.
Eiffel Forest
The British had retreated all the way to the forest regions between Belgium and Germany and set up defensive positions in the Eiffel Forest. The pursuing Soviets were tired and hungry and made no attempt to press any attacks.
Turkey
