In the summer of 1943, as Allied forces moved across Sicily, Mussolini was removed from power in Italy. Germany invaded northern Italy later in 1943 after Mussolini's fall. Britain did not invade northern Italy in the summer of 1943 and Mussolini was in no position to launch counter - offensives at that time.
