EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intense and chaotic scene of the Night Attack by the Ottoman Turkish forces on the Anzacs at Gallipoli during the First World War. The Battle of Chunuk Bair, fought in 1915 between the Ottoman defenders and the troops of the British Empire, saw the Anzacs, who were part of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, defending their lines against a relentless Turkish assault. In this image, the cliff faces at Gaba Tepe loom ominously in the background as the Turks launch their attack on the Anzac lines. The Australian soldiers, out of ammunition and left with only their bayonets, meet their attackers on the slopes leading up from the beach to the heights of Chunuk Bair. The rifles, once loaded with deadly bullets, now serve as makeshift clubs or improvised weapons. The soldiers' determined faces and tense body language convey the raw emotion and intensity of the battle. The Battle of Chunuk Bair was a pivotal moment in the Gallipoli Campaign, with both sides suffering heavy casualties. Despite the Anzacs' heroic defense, they ultimately failed to capture the heights, marking a significant setback for the Allied forces. This powerful photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers who fought in this brutal and devastating conflict.
