Summary
Soviet tanks move up on Praga, the suburb of Warsaw on the east bank of the Vistula. Marshal Rokosovsky is in charge of the offensive. Fighting is heavy all the way but at last the outskirts of Praga are reached. A Polish Regiment marches through the town to a great reception by the crowds. The C-in-C of the Soviet Forces and the head of the Polish Liberation Forces are seen. And across the river lies the city of Warsaw.
