EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment during the Allied advance towards Damascus in the Middle East during World War I. Taken circa 27 September 1918, the image shows troops of the Australian Mounted Division, accompanied by Indian soldiers, gathered at Jisr Benat Yakub, also known as the Bridge of the Daughters of Jacob, located south of Lake Huleh (Hula) in Palestine. The bridge, which had been damaged by the enemy, is a crucial crossing point for the Allied forces to continue their march towards the Syrian capital. The scene is set against the backdrop of a vast desert landscape, with the sun casting long shadows over the rugged terrain. The Australian soldiers, mounted on horses, are dressed in their distinctive slouch hats and uniforms, while their Indian counterparts wear turbans and traditional garments. The men work diligently to repair the damaged bridge, a testament to their determination and resilience in the face of adversity. The photograph offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of war, as well as the camaraderie and collaboration between soldiers from different backgrounds and nationalities. The advance towards Damascus marked a significant turning point in the conflict, with the Allied forces ultimately securing victory in the region. This powerful image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during this pivotal period in world history.
