Unknown Shell

I didn't think so but there was a possibility it was for a recoilless gun and the Israelis used them. I eliminated that as the band it not pre-grooved.

I'm getting suggestions it's Italian on Facebook, two individuals said that, but the Arabic doesn't fit. Ethiopian possibly. I can't think of any Arabs fighting for Italy during WWII if the dates are accurate.

A third fellow is suggesting a Krupp export shell to Afghanistan. I may never get to the bottom of this. It has a very distinctive proof on it that shouldn't be hard to find but I'm having no luck. Check the first photo of the fuse. Just above the 7.
