Gallipoli: Anzac, The Landing
Shortly after dawn on the 25 April 1915, off the coast of Gallipoli, the gentle splash of oars could be heard as thousands of Australian troops made their way towards the shore. Waiting silently on the cliffs and ridges above were Ottoman riflemen poised to defend their homelands at all costs. Within moments, gunfire erupted, signalling the start of a brutal fight which would last for eight long months and cost thousands of lives. Whilst remarkable acts of courage were displayed and hardships endured, Gallipoli ultimately ended in Allied defeat, an Ottoman victory. This video is the first in an exciting news series in partnership with the Gallipoli Association. It will tell the story of that very first day when the Anzacs came to Gaba Tepe.
