No usable points for either side (Axis 8, Allies 6).

First cruiser intercepted, second cruiser got through to East Med.

Japan moved a CP from Persia into Persian coast and the other into West Indian Ocean.

For Naval Air, Japan flew Navs to the China Sea and Japanese Coast zero boxes.

Searching Italian Coast first.

Both find first round, no factors could get through. Miss round II.

Now West Med. You haven't used any support there so far so won't add any this time either.
