1942 Japanese planned military offensive against the Australian territory of Nauru

Operation RY was the Imperial Japanese plan to invade and occupy Nauru and Ocean Islands, in the South Pacific, during the Pacific conflict of World War II. The operation was originally set to be executed in May 1942 immediately following Operation MO and before Operation MI, the latter of which resulted in the Battle of Midway. The primary reason for the operation was to exploit the islands' supplies of phosphate.
