Rare 1916 Footage: The Fall of Ottoman Trabzon (Russian Archives)

Witness the brutal reality of the Caucasus Campaign during World War I. Retrieved from the Russian State Documentary Film & Photo Archives, this rare footage titled "The Fall of Trabzon" was filmed in 1916 by military cameramen under the supervision of Colonel Sadze. In this documentary analysis, naval history expert Deniz Kozlov breaks down the strategic Russian operation to capture the key Ottoman port of Trabzon (Trebizond). We analyze the coordinated attack by the Russian Caucasus Army and the Batum Fleet. • The "Undead" Ship: The story of the gunboat Donets, which was sunk by a Turkish torpedo in Odessa, raised, repaired, and returned to bombard the coast with 6-inch Canet guns. • The Plastun Brigades: See the Kuban Cossack foot soldiers (special forces of the era) pushing heavy 1883 siege cannons up muddy mountains by sheer human force. • Logistics & Tactics: Unique footage of wounded soldiers being transported on stretchers suspended between two horses in the steep terrain. • The Surrender: The entry of General Lyakhov’s troops, the role of US Consul Oscar Heiser in mediating the transition, and the reaction of the Greek population. • Spoils of War: Underwater shots of thousands of Mauser rifles dumped into the harbor by retreating Ottoman forces. [Historical Context] The video also covers the arrival of General Nikolai Yudenich, the archaeological significance of Trabzon as the last fragment of the Byzantine Empire, and the eventual Russian withdrawal after the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. • 00:00 - Intro: Rare WWI Footage from Russian Archives • 01:30 - The Gunboat "Donets" & Coastal Bombardment • 03:45 - Battle of Karadere & General Lyakhov • 05:20 - The Plastuns: Pushing Heavy Cannons up Mountains • 07:10 - Ottoman Prisoners & Uniform Analysis • 08:50 - Mountain Logistics: Stretcher Between Two Horses • 10:15 - Fall of the City: Russian Troops Enter Trabzon (April 1916) • 11:30 - US Consul Oscar Heiser & The Greek Population • 13:10 - The Armenian Question & Diplomatic Intervention • 15:40 - Sunken Treasure: Thousands of Mauser Rifles Underwater • 17:20 - Arrival of General Yudenich • 19:00 - Historical Significance: The Empire of Trebizond • 20:45 - Conclusion: A Masterpiece of Amphibious Warfare TÜRKÇE AÇIKLAMA: Bölüm isimlerini metnin akışına göre İngilizceleştirdim.
