EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in the history of World War I, as German-taught Turkish chemists prepare to produce poisonous gases for use in the Ottoman Empire's attack on Allied forces during the Second Battle of Ypres on 12th June 1915. The 1910s saw the emergence of chemical warfare as a devastating new tactic in the First World War, with both sides seeking to gain the upper hand through the use of chlorine, phosgene, and mustard gases. In this photograph, Turkish chemists, under the guidance of their German instructors, mix and prepare the deadly chemicals that would be released from the trenches, causing mass destruction and injury to thousands of soldiers on the battlefield. The use of poisonous gases marked a significant shift in the nature of warfare, with the potential to inflict harm on a scale previously unseen. This haunting image serves as a stark reminder of the horrors of chemical warfare during the First World War and the human cost of the conflict.
