Part of the Greco-Italian War in 1941

The Italian spring offensive, also known as Operazione Primavera, was an offensive of the Greco-Italian War that lasted from 9 to 16 March 1941. The offensive was the last Italian attempt of the war to defeat the Greek forces, which had already advanced deep into Italian-controlled Albania. The opening of the offensive was supervised by the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini but ended a week later in complete failure.
