After three months, on 21 Mar, the Australians finally received enough reinforcements to launch an actual attack to take Giarabub, Libya.
Prevously, on 17 Mar 1941, Erwin Rommel sent a message to the besieged Italian garrison at Giarabub, asking the troops to hold on for a few more weeks and promising that his forces would arrive in relief in that time.
