November 10

Dixmude falls to the Germans in the final stages of the Battle of the Yser.

The SMS Konigsberg
The collier, Newbridge, converted into a blockship, is sunk in the main channel of the delta of the Rufiji River to prevent the escape of the SMS Konigsberg.

The Germans retaliate by moving the Konigsberg further up river, to make it more difficult for the British to destroy her.
