Battle of Krithia

During the Gallipoli campaign in 1915, several battles were fought near the village of Krithia, today Alçıtepe.

Over the following months, invading British Empire (including the 89th Punjabis of the British Indian Army) and French troops, who had landed near Cape Helles at the end of the peninsula, made several attempts to capture the village.

It was never reached; the Ottoman defenders successfully repulsed every assault.
