I dont see the African continent being hit by EMP at all, or at least very minorily. Outside of major existing Soviet bases there really wasnt much to hit in Africa.

For instance look at the Mombasa refinery - compared to US facilities and whats in the Middle East its a minor facility. You would have to be very very far down the list of targets before you ever hit that.

And also one other clue - Frank Frey in his notes basically said the refinery is operational - its why the US is there in the first place. You arent going to waste a para brigade and the infrastructure to support it, let alone a small naval task force to guard a non-operational or barely operational refinery.
