EDITORS COMMENTS
November 1915: A Moment of Determination in Mesopotamia's Battlefield This evocative black-and-white photograph captures a pivotal moment during the First World War as troops of the 6th Indian Division disembark from a ship at Lejj, Mesopotamia. The date is November 1915, just a few days before the Battle of Ctesiphon, a significant engagement in the Middle East theatre of the Great War. The soldiers, hailing from the Indian subcontinent, are seen here stepping onto the unfamiliar shores of Mesopotamia, their determined expressions hinting at the challenges and hardships that lie ahead. The backdrop of the vast, tranquil waters of the Persian Gulf serves as a stark contrast to the impending conflict. The 6th Indian Division, part of the British Indian Army, played a crucial role in the campaign to secure Mesopotamia from Ottoman forces. The Battle of Ctesiphon, fought on December 22, 1915, resulted in a decisive victory for the Allied forces, paving the way for further advances into the region. This image offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the soldiers of the Indian Division during the First World War. Their unwavering commitment and bravery in the face of adversity continue to be a testament to their indomitable spirit and the enduring bond between India and the United Kingdom.
