The Gallipoli Campaign: How Churchill’s WW1 Military Gamble Ended In Disaster

The Gallipoli Campaign of 1915 was a bold but ultimately disastrous Allied attempt to open a new front against the Central Powers by forcing a passage through the Dardanelles and capturing Constantinople. Spearheaded by Winston Churchill, the plan began as a naval assault but quickly devolved into a chaotic amphibious invasion marked by poor coordination, logistical failures, and brutal resistance from well-entrenched Turkish forces.
