"to burn the Mitau suburb of Riga"

Mitau is a town approximately 41km distant fron Riga, how can it then be a suburb of Riga? 80.151.9.187 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:16, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

User:80.151.9.187 That source says that. "After the battle of Ekau, the left bank of the Dvina was abandoned by Russian forces, including the Mitava suburb of Riga, which was burned down". Now Mitava Suburb of Riga is called Pārdaugava.
