102 years ago, the Great Offensive, a pivotal military operation in the history of the Republic of Turkey, took place. Commander-in-Chief Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk gave the crucial order for the final struggle against the Greek army.
Today marks the anniversary of this significant military victory, an occasion to commemorate the heroes who symbolize the resistance spirit of the Turkish nation. We honor all our martyrs who sacrificed their lives for our glorious homeland with respect, mercy, and gratitude. Keeping their memories alive is of great importance for the continuity of the Turkish nation’s struggle for independence and freedom.
May the souls of our heroes rest in peace and their places be heaven.
