6 Wellingtons to Emden but only 1 aircraft dropped bombs, which hit fields. No losses.
The German merchant ship which had recently been damaged at Le Havre was now spotted at Flushing where it had been taken for repair. 2 Mosquitoes of 105 Squadron set out to Flushing but did not return. It is believed, however, that they did hit the ship again. 2 more Mosquitoes and 6 Bostons then took off to carry out a sea search for the crews of the 2 lost Mosquitoes. These were not found and 1 of the Bostons was then lost.
