ground at Ghorbini and Comiso 'during the night of August 31/ September 1. Fires visible many miles from the target were start- ed among aircraft at Comiso. On Monday fighter and bomber aircraft of the R.A.F. attacked Pozzallo and Crotone.
Train Attacked
At Pozzallo, our fighters ma- chine-gunned a train whose en- gine was last seen emitting volu- mes of flames and steam.
At Crotone, shipping, munition factories and the railway were bombed. Direct hits on three buildings caused violent Cx- plosions, sheet of yellow flame and cloudy of blue-black smoke.
A merchantman was hit by three bombs and developed fire towards the stern. Quaya and
a seaplane flying in tho vicinity were also attacked. From these operations two of our aircraft are missing."-Br[- tish Wireless.
