German and Italian forces led by General Rommel besieged Tobruk for 242 days without taking the city until they were finally driven off in 1941. Rommel came back unexpectedly in 1942 and captured Tobruk in a single day. The anti-tank ditch had been allowed to fill in, and the Australians who had earlier defended Tobruk had been sent to the Pacific to fight the Japanese; leaving Tobruk defended by inexperienced Indian and South African troops. It was a limited victory for the Axis as most of their supply convoys in the Med preferred the safer route to Triboli or Benghazi. Nevertheless, Tobruk remained in Axis hands until the British victory at Second El Alamein forced them to abandon the city.
