Why did the Republican aviation attacked the German Warship Deutschland, that was anchored in front of the port of Ibiza?

There were several events that narrowed and gave rise to the catastrophe. Admiral Fischel, Head of the German Flotilla that watched over compliance with the mandate of the non -intervention committee in the area between Cabo de Gata and Oropesa, gave order for the battleship Deutschland not to anchor, as had done until that moment, In Palma de Mallorca, but in Ibiza and gave orders to the captain of the battle.

The reasons why the Government of the Republic had not arranged that Deutschland anchief in Ibiza was not known in Ibiza, area that corresponded to the responsibility of the French Navy.

For its part, The fleet of the Republic was riding an important operation. The Magallanes merchant ship approached from Odesa with an important cargo of weapons and already at the height of Algiers and was about to make the final jump to Cartagena.

That ship group was sighted by Deutschland, which indicates that, likely, The Republican flotilla also saw the battleship anchored in Ibiza, What Valencia had to inform themselves and from there gave part to the Alcázares Aviation Field.

The Navy of the rebels wanted to prevent their arrival so that the Republican Headquarters planned an operation to mislead the enemy: Two cruises, Freedom and Méndez Núñez, accompanied by a flotilla of eight destroyers, They left the main base of Cartagena with the direction of Ibiza.
