Operation Matador was an amphibious thrust, during the Burma Campaign in January 1945, to capture the strategic port of Kyaukpyu, located at the northern tip of Ramree Island, south of Akyab across Hunter's Bay, as well as the key airfield near the port. On 21 January 1945, an hour before the Indian 71st Brigade was to land, the battleship HMS Queen Elizabeth opened fire with her main battery while planes from the escort carrier HMS Ameer spotted for her. The light cruiser HMS Phoebe also joined the bombardment, along with Liberators and Thunderbolts of No. 224 Group RAF which bombed and strafed to soften up the beaches. The assault troops landed unopposed and secured the beachhead; the following day, the Indian 4th Infantry Brigade landed.

Le 21 janvier 1945, une heure avant l'arrivée de la 71e brigade indienne, le cuirassé HMS Queen Elizabeth ouvrit le feu avec sa batterie principale tandis que les avions du porte-avions d'escorte HMS Ameer le repérait. Le croiseur léger HMS Phoebe rejoignit également le bombardement, en compagnie des Liberator et Thunderbolt du n ° 224 Group RAF bombardant et mitraillant pour nettoyer les plages. Les troupes d'assaut ont débarqué sans opposition et ont sécurisé la tête de pont ; le lendemain, la 4e brigade d'infanterie indienne débarqua à son tour. (fr)
