Rocket strikes on Rhodes Castle walls?

A question out of curiousity:

Just got back from the fine Greek island of Rhodes in the Aegean Sea, whilst wallking the dry moat around the city i noticed on the ancient walls near the harbour definate modern ( WW2 ) combat damage, that to my untrained eye look like 20mm strikes together with possible 60lb rocket strikes. The damage is very different to the Crusades battle damage that is still to be seen. All the damage was grouped on an area of wall only a stones throw from the harbour ( or rocket miss ? )
Was Italian and German shipping attacked by RAF fighter bombers ever, whilst in the harbour of Rhodes old town at any stage of the war...
