IN TOBRUK. & FRONTIER AREAS. ENEMY PATROLS DRIVEN IN. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10.5 a.m.) RUGBY, November 6. A communique from headquarters in Cairo states: “Yesterday there was no hostile air activity over Tobruk and the enemy artillery was much less active than normally. Our patrol activities were again hampered by a persisting dust storm. “In the frontier area small enemy patrols were observed some miles south-west of Halfjya, also six miles' of Sidi Omar. Under cover of these patrols, enemy working parties evidently were making additions to their frontier defences. On the approach of our own patrols, the enemy withdrew, allowing us to complete without interruption a. comprehensive reconnaissance of certain selected areas.”
