ITALIANS IN LIBYA
FEELING STRAIN OF BRITISH HARRYING PLANS FOR OFFENSIVE DISRUPTED. POSITION ON EGYPTIAN BORDER. .Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. (Received This Day. 1.35 p.m.) CAIRO. August 29,.
The British harrying of the Italians in Libya has had a more far-reaching effect than was anticipated, seriously disrupting Italy's plans for an offensive. The Italians’ only protection is dispersal. Italy probably will attempt to maintain a force near the Egyptian border in order to enforce the maintenance of stronger British forces in Egypt, but it remains to be seen how far the Italians are able to bear the strain of constant naval and aerial bombardment.
