When Italy entered the war in June 1940, its Bombays flew night raids on Benghazi and Tobruk as well as carrying troops and supplies. They also flew wounded men out of besieged Tobruk, and on 2nd May 1941 they carried the Greek Royal Family from Crete to Egypt. L5857 was the last of 50 Bombays built by Short \u0026amp; Harland in Belfast, and it was destroyed in an air raid at Kufra in Libya on 25th September 1942.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp
