Re: The Mysterious Air Attack on Tripoli, May 3, 1941

In support of this theory, a question: From which North African airfields could British bombers have attacked Tripoli in early May 1941? But there are other questions: what type of mines were the Swordfish laying, and could these mines have functioned as impact-detonated bombs?
