Spain's war in Africa - An altar under fire'. 'Memorial service to General Pinto on the spot where he fell'. 'Spanish casualties in Africa - wounded first aid at Melilla'. The Second Melillan campaign (the "Melilla War" or Guerra de Melilla in Spanish) was a conflict in 1909 and 1910 in Morocco around Melilla. The fighting involved local Riffian and the Spanish Army. On 26 June, the Spanish suffered a second defeat at the Lobo Canyon, when General Marina sent another force under General Pintos to protect Segunda Caseta. In this ambush, the Rifians killed General Pintos and 153 men, and wounded some 600 others.
