Dive bombers in flight and fire in the dark

Four single-engined aircraft with cranked wings and fixed, faired undercarriages fly past in a loose group; the sky is then empty and grey, and in near darkness a few bright patches of flame flicker. Apparently German newsreel footage; according to the source part of the attack on Rotterdam, May 1940.
