Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan marked the 110th anniversary of the Gallipoli Victory and Martyrs' Day, honoring the soldiers who defended the Ottoman Empire in one of World War I’s fiercest battles. The victory played a key role in shaping Türkiye’s path to independence.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan commemorated the 110th anniversary of the Canakkale (Gallipoli) Victory and Martyrs' Day on Tuesday, recognizing a pivotal World War I battle.
In a message shared on social media, Erdogan expressed his hope that the occasion would be meaningful for Türkiye, its people, and allied nations. He paid tribute to fallen soldiers, pledging to honor their memory with deep respect and prayers.
Calling the Gallipoli campaign one of the most significant moments in the nation’s history, he highlighted its lasting impact.
The Gallipoli Campaign
One of the deadliest battles of World War I, the Gallipoli campaign saw tens of thousands of casualties. Fought between April 25, 1915, and January 9, 1916, the conflict was sparked by Britain and France’s attempt to open a sea route to their ally, Russia, by capturing the Gallipoli Peninsula and advancing toward Istanbul, the Ottoman capital.
However, Ottoman forces successfully repelled the naval attack, leading to a prolonged land battle. After months of intense fighting and heavy losses on both sides, the Allied forces ultimately withdrew.
The victory boosted the morale of the Ottoman side, later inspiring Türkiye’s War of Independence (1919-1922). This struggle led to the establishment of the Republic of Türkiye in 1923, marking the end of the Ottoman Empire.
