t MANY BRITISH BOMBING RAIDS. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.15 a.m.) RUGBY, December 4. In Italian East Africa Massala was heavily raided and bombs were dropped on an enemy fortified position and a motor transport park was straddled. The British also machine-gunned motor transport and enemy personnel. At Adarbed 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. A Cairo communique transmitted by the 8.8.
