Answer: it helped secure the win
Explanation: The North African campaign of the Second World War took place in North Africa from 10 June 1940 to 13 May 1943. It included campaigns fought in the Libyan and Egyptian deserts, Morocco and Algeria as well as Tunisia.
The battle for North Africa was a struggle for control of the Suez Canal and access to oil from the Middle East and raw materials from Asia. Oil in particular had become a critical strategic commodity due to the increased mechanization of modern armies.
The Allied forces worked together and eventually, the information gathered through British intelligence proved critical to Allied success in North Africa in winning the campaign and this victory for the Allies immediately led to the Italian Campaign, which resulted in the downfall of the fascist government in Italy and the elimination of Germany's main European ally.
