EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the desolate beauty and historical significance of an Egyptian fort built during World War I, nestled in the heart of the Western Desert about 50 miles south of Mersa Matruh. The fort, which guarded the desert route between Siwa and Wadi Natrum, stands as a testament to the strategic importance of Egypt during the Great War. During this period, Egypt served as a crucial strategic location for the British Empire, as it controlled the Suez Canal, a vital shipping route connecting Europe to Asia. With the outbreak of World War I in 1914, the Egyptian desert became a battleground as the Central Powers attempted to seize control of the canal and disrupt Allied supply lines. The fort in this photograph was one of several built by the British to protect the desert routes and prevent enemy advances. The rugged terrain and extreme climate presented unique challenges for the soldiers stationed here, who endured scorching temperatures, sandstorms, and limited water supplies. Despite these challenges, the fort remained a vital outpost, providing shelter and protection for the troops and ensuring the safety of the vital desert routes. Today, the fort stands as a reminder of the rich history of Egypt during World War I and the sacrifices made by the soldiers who defended this strategically important location in the Western Desert.
