Italians Harassed

The South African Air Force is continuing to harass retreating enemy forces, states a communique issued here today.

Dive bombers attacked an Italian motor transport park at Neghelli, Abyssinia, on Thursday, and fires and explosions followed the attack.

Further inspection of Modun, five miles inland from Aju Brava in Italian Somaliland, has revealed the accuracy of the recent Naval bombardment, states the communique. A number of casualties were caused, damage was done to buildings, and installations were destroyed.—Reuter.
