Kut Al-Amara

Newspapers in various countries of the world were not indifferent to this victory of the Turkish army over the British army, and they interpreted it in their own way: “The victory of Kut Al-Amara will leave England in a difficult situation at home and in its colonies. Kut’s silence in this way is a great military and political blow on behalf of the British. As a matter of fact, Britain’s reputation in the Orient was shaken. Six months after the defeat at Gallipoli, they suffered a new defeat here, dealing a great blow to the influence of the British on the Islamic world. This victory will glorify Turkey’s influence in the eyes of Muslim communities, and the British will soon get this on their minds.”
