British Headquarters in Egypt announced:
British advanced units are now approaching the area of Tobruk. We have already taken more than 30,000 (Italian) prisoners around Bardia (Libya). Large quantities of tanks, guns, matériel and supplies of all kinds have fallen into the hands of British troops.
