Overview:

After the swirling melee of 15 July, Rommel and the DAK made a determined effort to regain the lost ground on Ruweisat Ridge on the 16th. Gathering his remaining mobile armor, he sent then east-ward again. This attack met determined resistance. The concentrated fire of British corps artillery was brought to bear with devastating effect. Fire from 6-pounder anti-tank guns picked off one tank after another. Rommel was forced to call off the attack and withdrew, leaving behind 24 tanks, including a captured Stuart, six armored cars, six 88mm guns, ten other anti-tank guns and 10 field guns.
Attacker: German / Italian (Elements of the 15th Panzer Division and the Italian 30th Corps)
Defender: New Zealand (Elements of the 4th Brigade of the New Zealand Division)
