Description

Banova Jaruga, Yugoslavia. 1945-02-05. Beaufighter, Mustang, Marauder and other aircraft of the Balkan Air Force continue their hammering of German rail communications in Yugoslavia. A successful attack was made on 1945-02-05 against trucks and rail tankers at Banova Jaruga, about fifty miles south east of Zagreb on one of the main lines from that city which is being used by the Germans for supplying their troops in Yugoslavia. Rockets from an attacking Beaufighter aircraft streak towards the lines of tankers and trucks.
