MOSCOW, Thursday--Russian naval planes have shot down 10 German airplanes and three gliders over the Black Sea, the high command reported today, revealing Germany's first use of gliders since the invasion of Crete.
The Germans dumped troops, weapons and supplies onto Crete in gliders and drove the British imperial troops from the island after a few days fighting. Their use in the Black Sea battle might indicate an attempt to invade the Crimea.
