Transported in three Indonesian Air Force C-130 Hercules aircraft, which had set off from Jakarta, only two aircraft managed to reach the target drop zone, the third aircraft crashed into the Straits of Malacca while trying to evade interception by a No. 64 Squadron RAF Javelin FAW.9 launched from RAF Tengah, Singapore.〔 Tropical storms dispersed the parachute drop around Labis, about north of Singapore with 98 paratroopers being inserted. The landing zone was close to the camp of the 1/10th Gurkhas, who were later joined in mopping up operations by the 1st Battalion, Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment (1 RNZIR) who were stationed near Malacca with the 28th Commonwealth Brigade. Under the overall command of 4th Malaysian Infantry Brigade, operations to round up the 98 paratroopers took about a month. 1 RNZIR and 1/10th Gurkhas accounted for all but eight of the paratroopers, killing 32 and capturing 62 of the intruders at the cost of a New Zealand major killed.〔 Patrols continued throughout the area around Labis throughout October. == References == Notes 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Landing at Labis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
