Britain Faces Limits on Aid as Axis Threat Grows
Axis predictions point to a quick strike on Turkey and a possible Cyprus invasion as Germany eyes routes to the Middle East. Dakar could become a base for air and surface raiders, complicating Britain's Atlantic and Mediterranean supply lines. Meanwhile 15 000 Empire troops withdraw from Crete to reinforce Egypt and the Suez front, with casualties and losses acknowledged by the war office. Britain also hails a victory in oil-rich Iraq after Rashid Ali al Gailani’s appeal for aid, easing troop movements toward the Syrian frontier.
