In the English Channel... German minelayers are active in the Straits of Dover during the night (September 5-6) as part of Operation Walter.
In Romania... Parliament is dissolved and the constitution suspended.
Over Britain... German aircraft attack the Biggin Hill and Detling airfields. German Ju88 and He111 bombers hit the oil storage tanks at Thameshaven (causing fires that continue to burn for several days). Maidstone is also raided during the day. Oberleutnant von Werra is captured after making a forced landing his Me109 in Kent. (He later becomes the only German prisoner to escape from Canada and return to Germany.) At night, Liverpool and Manchester are bombed.-
The Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4 of Oblt Franz von Werra shot down.-
