The German attacks on Nauru refers to the two attacks on Nauru in December 1940. Nauru is an island country in Micronesia, a subregion of Oceania, in the Central Pacific. These attacks were conducted by auxiliary cruisers between 6 and 8 December and on 27 December. The raiders sank five Allied merchant ships and inflicted serious damage on Nauru's economically important phosphate-loading facilities. Despite the significance of the island to the Australian and New Zealand economies, Nauru was not defended and the German force did not suffer any losses.

  • Německé útoky na Nauru je pojmenování pro dva útoky německých lodí na ostrov Nauru, ke kterým došlo v prosinci 1940. Cílem německého námořnictva bylo paralyzování spojenecké obchodní aktivity v okolí ostrova a destrukce fosfátových těžebních zařízení. I přes výraznou ekonomickou důležitost ostrova nebyla na ostrově žádná vojenská přítomnost a německé síly tak nezaznamenaly žádné ztráty. (cs)
  • 두 차례에 걸쳐 일어난 독일군의 나우루 공격(영어: German attacks on Nauru)은 1940년 12월 독일군이 나우루를 폭격한 사건이었다. 12월 6일부터 8일, 27일 두 차례에 걸쳐 2척이 나우루를 공격하였다. 급습으로 인해, 연합국 소속 상선 5척이 격침되었고 나우루의 경제에 중요한 인산염 캔틸리버 하중 장치가 손상을 입었다. 오스트레일리아와 뉴질랜드의 경제의 중요성에도 불구하고, 나우루는 방어 준비가 되어 있지 않았으며 독일은 피해를 입지 않았다. 나우루의 두 차례 공격은 제2차 세계 대전 중 태평양의 독일군 작전에서 가장 효과적이었던 작전이다. 이 피해로 인해 오스트레일리아, 뉴질랜드, 일본으로 운송되는 인산염 보급이 중단되면서 농업에 타격을 입게 되었다. 이에 대응하여, 연합군 해군은 나우루와 바나바섬을 보호하기 위해 남태평양 근처로 일부 배치되었다. 또한, 두 섬을 지키기 위한 주둔군이 배치되었다.

  • Gli attacchi tedeschi a Nauru si svolsero nel dicembre del 1940, quando due incrociatori ausiliari della Kriegsmarine tedesca (Orion e Komet) bombardarono le installazioni industriali per l'estrazione di fosfati presenti sulla piccola isola di Nauru, possedimento australiano nell'oceano Pacifico, oltre ad affondare cinque mercantili presenti nelle sue vicinanze. Il bombardamento di Nauru rappresentò la maggior azione compiuta da navi corsare tedesche nell'oceano Pacifico durante la seconda guerra mondiale. (it)
  • Die Angriffe auf Nauru fanden vom 6. bis 8. Dezember und am 27. Dezember 1940 durch deutsche Hilfskreuzer statt. Nauru gehörte damals Australien, Großbritannien und Neuseeland und ist heute ein selbständiger Inselstaat im Südpazifik, auf der ein großes Phosphatvorkommen abgebaut wird. Phosphat wird für die Herstellung von Düngemitteln der Landwirtschaft und Sprengstoff verwendet. (de)

  • Los ataques alemanes contra Nauru se refieren a los dos ataques contra Nauru en diciembre de 1940. Estos ataques fueron llevados a cabo por cruceros auxiliares entre el 6 y el 8 de diciembre y el 27 de diciembre. Los asaltantes hundieron cinco buques mercantes de los aliados e infligieron graves daños a las importantes instalaciones de carga de fosfatos de Nauru. A pesar de la importancia de la isla para las economías australiana y neozelandesa, Nauru no fue defendida y la fuerza alemana no sufrió ninguna pérdida. (es)
  • Les attaques allemandes sur Nauru survenues en décembre 1940 contre les intérêts des Alliés dans le Pacifique central sont des raids effectués par deux croiseurs auxiliaires de l'Allemagne nazie, des navires de commerce reconvertis en bâtiments de guerre par l'adjonction d'armement et maquillés en bâtiments civils. Elles comptent parmi les premières opérations du conflit mondial dans la région, avant le déclenchement de la guerre du Pacifique proprement dite. À cette époque, l'empire du Japon n'est pas encore entré en guerre contre les Alliés et le Pacifique ne constitue qu'un théâtre marginal de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Les attaques visent à porter un coup d'arrêt à l'exportation du phosphate de Nauru, une petite île d'Océanie administrée depuis 1914 par l'Australie. La flottille allem (fr)
  • Германские атаки Науру — два нападения германского флота на Науру в декабре 1940 года силами вспомогательных крейсеров. Нападавшие затопили пять кораблей союзников и нанесли серьёзный ущерб экономически важным объектам добычи фосфатов Науру. Несмотря на значимость острова для австралийских и новозеландских экономик, Науру был беззащитен, а немецкие войска не понесли никаких потерь. (ru)
