LASSER PLANS NEW
RED SEA OUTLET
Rome, Aug. 20. (Pi Italian
authorities Indicated today that
operations to close Britain's gate
way to the Red Sea would be
undertaken as a sequel to the
conquest of British Somaliland
and occupation of Berbera, its
capital.
Strongly Implying that attacks
on Aden, on the Arabian coast
of the narrow waterways link
ing the Red sea and the Indian
ocean, and on Islands In the
strait of Bab El Mandeb were
contemplated, authoritative fas
cists said the Somaliland victory
would enable their forces to
"threaten the British outlet from
the Red Sea."
The occupation of Berbera,
fall of which the British an
nounced yesterday, was reported
in today's Italian high com
mand communique.
Mussolini ordered the Duke
of Aosta, commander of the Ital
ian forces on this front, to lead
them against new objectives
after a period of rest.
The British troops retreating
from Berbera by sea left part of
the city in flames, a communique
said.
On entire camel corps, de
scribed as "well equipped and
well armed" was said to have
surrendered to the advancing
Italians at Hargeisa, south of
the port.
The high command also re
ported that a submarine of un
known nationality had hit an
Italian mine near the Dodecan
ese Islands in the eastern Medi
terranean. A large patch of oil
on the sea led to the belief it
had sunk.
