Besides putting the torch to Belgrade, it was reported in Ber lin, nazi bombers also pounded Sarajevo, Mostar, Ljubljana, Kumbar and Podgorica. Dispatches from Bern, Swit zerland, quoted the Yugoslav radio as saying that Yugoslav artillery had opened fire along the Albanian frontier, preparing for an attack on Italian-held Al bania. The Germans said Yugo slavia's capital, Belgrade, had been subjected to a fourth heavy bombing attack during the night and left aflame. DNB, the official German news agency, quoted the Bul garian air command as saying Yugoslavia bombers had attack ed the open cities of Sofia and Kustendel, Bulgarian, killing several women and children. Hitler's high command listed 'enemy" plane losses in the opening day of the new conflict at 102, including 35 bagged in aerial combat. Italy joined in the hostilities. The fascist air force reported it had bombed the Yugoslav naval bases of Split (Spalato) and Cat- taro, an arsenal and an air base. Turkey remained neutral as German Panzer divisions storm ed into neighboring Greece, but the official Turkish radio de clared Germany's given reasons for attack "do not satisfy any one." It Is apparent who brought war to the Balkans," the radio said, adding that German stra tegy appeared to be aimed at Yugoslavia's "waist" the im portant rail Junction city of Nis in the Vardar river valley in the hope of slicing Yugoslavia in two. Soviet Russia, linked to Yugo slavia by a newly-signed pact of friendship and non-agression, likewise remained calm, but the newspaper Izvestia commented that Yugoslavia's efforts to secure peace "could not help but arouse the sympathy of the soviet union."
