Allies Attack Turk Trenches on Gallipoli Front
Allied squadrons and land batteries bombarded Turkish positions at Ari Burnu and near Anz Barni on the Gallipoli Peninsula as Ottoman forces report heavy artillery activity before Kut el Amara. In Mesopotamia Turkish troops strengthen defenses while British forces press near the Kut position.
