The mission was conceived in order to assist Panzer Army Africa (to which Almásy was attached) by transferring two Abwehr agents deep into British-held Egypt. In 1942, after numerous battles back and forth in the North African desert, German and Italian forces had pushed Commonwealth forces into a retreat that ended at El Alamein.

The area is bordered on the north by the Mediterranean and a huge salt pan - the impassable Qattara Depression - to the south.
