Swedish galleys campaigning against Prussian shipping off Pomerania attacked a Prussian flotilla at Neuwarp (modern Nowe Warpno), 25 miles northwest of Stettin. A four-hour fight saw the Swedes capture all the larger vessels, taking 600 prisoners. However, Prussia’s flotilla was quickly rebuilt and Swedish involvement remained peripheral to the war in Europe.
