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.
Support?

Axis find.
Spent points like so, saving three to select target.
Nothing but subs left so that concludes combat for the Italian Coast.

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.
