↑ The territory of the Kingdom of Egypt was effectively in the war since since Italy's invasion of Egypt in 1940 from Italian Libya, with British forces fighting Italian and later German forces, however Egypt only officially declared war in February 1945.
↑ Like Egypt, Syria was effectively in the war before its official declaration in February 1945.
