An Italian general, Tellini, was called to sort out the border of Greece and Albania.
On the 27th of August, Tellini and his men were ambushed and killed.
Italian Mussolini was furious, blamed the Greek government and demanded it pay compensation and kill the murderers.
The Greeks however did not know who the murderers were so Mussolini attacked and occupied the Greek island Corfu on the 31st.
Fifteen were killed so Greece appealed to the League.
7th of September, the League condemned Mussolini's actions and suggested Greece pay compensation to Italy that would would be held with the League until the killers were found.
Officially, Mussolini accepted, but behind the scenes he persuaded the Conference of Ambassadors to change the ruling.
So instead, the Greeks had to apologise a pay direct compensation to Italy.
