I./KG 4 with 1.-3. Staffel was in Russia during 1941-43.

Hence,

II./KG 4
Balkan Campaign and Mid-East Operations. (Apr 41 - Jun 41)
6.4.41: from Vienna-Aspern with 28(25) He 111Ps on strength, flew two attacks on Belgrade dropping aerial mines into the city that destroyed much of the central area and caused great loss of life.
21.4.41: transferred to Zilistea in Central Romania and flew bomb and mine-laying attacks on Alexandria/Egypt and the Suez Canal from 1 May to 7 Jun, using the island of Rhodes off the southwest coast of Turkey as a staging and refueling base. Only 5 planes were lost for the 69 sorties flown, a rate considered acceptable in view of the importance of the mission and the distance of the target.
5/41: meanwhile, 4. Staffel was detached on 8 May and assigned to Fliegerführer Irak (Sonderkommando Junck) for special operations in Iraq, flying armed reconnaissance missions against British targets in the western part of the country from Mosul. The Staffel returned to Zilistea on 11 Jun after losing 8 He 111s.

There are other possibilities but there isn't much more that we can do without a date or dates, Andreas. Are you sure your reference source says "Minenstaffel" and not "Minensuchstaffel"?
