Australian Light Horse charge at Beersheba. 31 October 1917 (Ottoman view)

This painting is the Ottoman view of the ALH charge at Beersheba.

Tasked with covering the retreat of the Beersheba garrison and buying enough time for the wells to be demolished, The first line of trenches are being overrun by the Australian charge.
Maxim machine guns try to lay down supressing fire but their shots will not be enough to stop the rapidly closing cavalry.
