Thursday, April 29, 1915. Things in Africa and Arabia.

Senussi rebels defeated a force of Italians at Gasr Bu Hadi, Libya.

Italy was not yet a combatant in the Great War.

A small force of British colonial troops defeated a much larger German force at a fort in British Nigeria.

Survivors of the SMS Emden  arrived in Al Wajh on the Red Sea where they'd connect with the Hejez railway.

Last edition:
