At 08:20 on the morning of 25 July the PVA again assaulted the Marines on Hill 119 in company strength, but were soon halted by American artillery and mortar fire which inflicted heavy losses; skirmishing continued for the remainder of the day.
While no major assaults against Hill 111 occurred, a heavy PVA barrage targeted the position at 11:00.
F9F Panthers provided air support to the Marines throughout the day, while American tanks continued to engage PVA targets in support of the defenders on Hill 111 and Boulder City.
Finally, at 13:35 the last of the PVA infantry were forced off the forward slopes of Boulder City by the Marines.
PVA casualties were estimated by the Americans to have included another 75 killed and 425 wounded.
The PVA continued to heavily shell the American positions, and by late afternoon 13,500 mortar and artillery rounds had fallen on the sector held by 7th Marine Regiment.
The Americans fired many counter-battery missions in response, firing 36,794 rounds.
The ongoing relief of the 7th Marine Regiment continued throughout the day.
Meanwhile, the Australian positions on The Hook were also heavily shelled throughout the day, forcing many of the defenders underground into the network of tunnels then being extended by a team of New Zealand sappers.

Realising that they had only faced a series of probes the previous night, rather than a major attack, and as these actions may have been in preparation for a heavier attack, a vigorous defence was subsequently prepared by the Australians with the reserve companies moved into blocking positions to strengthen the forward defences.
The defenders endured steady shelling and harassing fire, while after dark The Hook was probed again, this time by a group of about 20 PVA.
The force was subsequently engaged by an Australian standing patrol from D Company at 21:00 and forced to withdraw, leaving behind one dead at a cost of one Australian killed and one wounded.
At 21:20 the PVA fire became more intense, and a heavy blow was launched by the PVA against the Marines on Hill 119 shortly after.
Beginning at 21:30, elements of the 1st and 7th Marines were attacked by two PVA companies.
A heavy concentration by the entire US I Corps artillery was fired in response, and the PVA were forced to withdraw.
At 23:00 the PVA shelling intensified to thirty-rounds per minute, and was followed fifteen minutes later by another determined charge by PVA infantry against the Marines on the left flank on Hill 111 and Boulder City during a furious attack.
The Australian positions were not directly attacked during the night, although C Company engaged the PVA in no-man's land sporadically at long range in support of the Americans.
As on the previous night, 3 RAR was not attacked.
In total more than 4,200 mortar and artillery rounds were fired by the PVA at 2 RAR during the night, and three Australians were killed and nine wounded.

In contrast, the Marines were more heavily engaged, with the fighting occurring at close quarters for more than an hour before they repelled their attackers and counter-attacked.
An Australian bunker between the Marines on Hill 111 and C Company, 2 RAR on Hill 121 was also the scene of heavy fighting, after the PVA penetrated the undefended space between the two positions.
Manned by just six Australians under the command of Lance Corporal Kenneth Crockford, the position was attacked by the PVA simultaneously from several sides following a determined charge at 23:40.
During bitter hand-to-hand fighting in the trenches around the bunker the under-strength Australian section ejected the PVA and prevented them from advancing any further.
They then directed artillery fire onto their position to break up subsequent attacks.
Further PVA probes were launched against Hills 111 and 119 in the early hours of 26 July, and they succeeded in temporarily seizing parts of the American trench line.
Between 01:30 and 03:00 heavy fighting continued before the PVA were driven from the position by the Marines.
