Overview:
The 8th Army envisaged the capture of the whole Ruweisat Ridge westwards to Point 63 during the New Zealand night attack planned for 14/15 July. This ambitious plan entailed a six mile approach for the left-mots brigade of the New Zealand Division. Thus, success placed the 5th New Zealand Brigade out of range of artillery support after the Kiwis over-ran the positions of the Brescia Division. Although the attack swept right into Deir el Shein, where Italians threw up their hands in great numbers, enemy resistance held up the effort to bring up supporting arms. This place the 5th Brigade in grave danger. At daybreak, a laager of Panzers were heard firing up their engines. The ominous sound was the precursor to the approach of dusty, battle weary German tanks.Attacker: German (15th Panzer Division)
Defender: New Zealand (5th New Zealand Brigade and 22nd Armoured Brigade)
