Fighting at the Isonzo – the sixth battle to date at that location – ended August 17, with minimal gains by the Italians, yet still counted as a victory. 30,000 Italian and 8,000 Austro-Hungarian soldiers are dead, with a further 21,000 and 34,000 wounded.

In Macedonia, the Central Powers launched an offensive intended to disrupt a perceived Allied assault, with the threat of Romania joining the Allies looming. The assault was launched towards Florina and Chegan, and took Lerin early on.

Fighting at Doiran ended August 18, as additional Allied attacks against the Bulgarians on the 15, 16, and 18th all failed. 3,200 Allied soldiers have fallen, with 900 Bulgarian casualties.

At Verdun, Fleury was recaptured by the French.

At the Somme, the armies are entrenching as attention seems to focus towards Verdun. Brusilov’s advance continues.
