Turks burying their dead in front of trenches during the armistice on 24th May 1915. The Australians in front are collecting equipment gathered from their dead and in the back near the group of Turks and Australians is a trench where several dozen dead Turks were being buried. More than 3000 Turks and approximately 160 Australians were killed during the Turkish counter attack on 19 May 1915. Appoximately one million rounds of ammunition were fired during the one day attack. The stench from the dead was so unbearable that the Turks initiated a nine hour armistice so that both sides could recover and bury the dead. 24 May 1915
