Battle of Annual
A total of 15,000 Spanish soldiers fell in the days from July 22 to August 9; most died during the Battle of Annual (known as the "Disaster of Annual" to Spanish historians). Krim followed up his victory at Annual by laying siege to all of the "blocaos" in the Riff mountains, none of which had much food or water stored, and all of which he took. After the Annual rout, Spanish morale collapsed and there was very little attempt at organized resistance, with the commanders of every "blocao" making no effort at any organized retreat. On that final day, Silvestre's deputy, General Felipe Navarro y Ceballos-Escalera, surrendered with his men at the sprawling fort of Mount Arruit.
