Battle?

[edit]

I believe it is excessive to call Battle the small fight fot Kufra. Just four French dead is a bit too much a small amount for a "battle". I'd call it "siege of Kufra" or "engagement of Kufra" or whatever, but not "battle". --NBDA (talk) 18:45, 19 January 2011 (UTC) Indeed the French named the event as "la prise de Kufra", the take of Kufra. In fact in France's official history , the oath is more rememred than the military action per se. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.251.101.187 (talk) 01:22, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Captured

[edit]

The infobox states that 282 Italians and Libyans were captured. But in the texts it is written: "The Italian garrison was permitted to withdraw to the north-west". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.35.7.167 (talk) 01:29, 28 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
