EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bravery and determination of the 6th Mounted Brigade during the Charge of El-Mughar in the Palestine Campaign of the First World War. Dated 13 November 1917, this historic moment marked a significant advance in the British efforts to capture Jerusalem and seize control of the railway junction at Junction Station. The Turkish Seventh Army, defending the area, faced the relentless charge of the British cavalry, led by the 1st/Royal Dragoons, 1st/Royal Scots Fusiliers, and 1st/Gloucester Hussars. The scene is set against the arid landscape of Palestine, with the sun casting long shadows over the dusty terrain. The soldiers, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, are seen galloping towards the enemy lines, swords drawn and ready for battle. Horses and riders are a blur of motion, their focus unwavering as they charge forward. The Charge of El-Mughar was a pivotal moment in the Battle of Junction Station, which saw the British capture the railway junction that linked the Turkish Seventh Army around Jerusalem with the Eighth Army on the coast. The victory marked a turning point in the campaign, paving the way for the eventual capture of Jerusalem on 9 December 1917. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and sacrifice of the British soldiers who fought in the Middle East during the First World War. It is a testament to their unwavering commitment to their mission and their determination to secure a victory, no matter the cost.
