The advance to the River Han continued and an attack was planned against enemy positions on the north-west spurs of Hill 630. The 1st Battalion The Royal Ulster Rifles was moved forward to an assembly area about 800 metres short of the Chinese positions.

The Battalion then moved into a hasty defensive position for the night.
