Rommel's North Africa Campaign

Rommel's North Africa Campaign (1941-1943) was a series of military battles during World War II in the desert region, involving German and Italian forces led by General Erwin Rommel against British and Allied troops. Rommel, known as the "Desert Fox," aimed to control vital oil supplies and disrupt Allies’ plans. The campaign saw rapid advances and fierce desert fighting but ultimately ended with the Allies' victory at El Alamein, pushing Axis forces out of North Africa. It was a strategic turning point that contributed to the overall defeat of Axis powers in the region.
