CAMPAIGN IN AFRICA

BRITISH REPORTS i RUGBY, December 4. A Cairo communique states: “Our patrols were again active north and south of Kassala, inflicting casualties on the enemy, without loss to themselves. There is no change in the situation on the other fronts.” In Italian East Africa, Kassala was

heavily raided. Bombs were dropped on an enemy fortified position and a motor transport park was straddled. The British also machine-gunned transport and enemy personnel. At Adardeb, a Rhodesian squadron bombed an enemy camp, starting a fire. Numerous reconnaissances were carried out over enemy territory on all fronts. From all these operations the British aircraft returned safely.
