In 1941, Hitler attacked Allied shipping headed to what port, forcing a major redirect?

In 1941, following some success in North Africa, Churchill committed troops to protect Greece, leaving Wavell in Libya with a limited number of brigades. This was a misstep on Churchill's part. Weeks prior, Hitler had also committed troops to Italy, leading to the Luftwaffe’s Fliegerkorps X attack on Allied shipping heading to Benghazi. The Brits then had to redirect supplies to Tobruk – a 450-mile detour.
