"extended caption: Near Dumar Stations, on the outskirts of Damascus, a Turkish column was escaping by the Beyrout road, which winds through the gorge alongside the Abana river. When word was brought to the Australians they rushed for the heights above the defile, and with six machine guns harassed the column all night. Daylight showed in the road a holocaust of dead and wounded men and animals." image: the scene of the remains of a Turkish transport lying on a road. Dead Turkish soldiers and horses lie amongst the wreckage of a waggon in the foreground; details that seem to spread the length of the road. A high bank lines the left of the road, and a river runs along the right.
