Attack on Durres 1918

On the Thessaloniki front, on 15 September 1918, the agreed Oriental Army launched an attack on the defensive line defended mainly by the Bulgarian army supplemented by German troops. Its right flank (in Albania) was protected by the Austro-Hungarian Army. This line was breached in just one week and after another week the Bulgarian army capitulated.
