- The Battle of Fromelles, sometimes known as the Action at Fromelles or the Battle of Fleurbaix, occurred in France on July 19-20, 1916, during World War I. The action was intended partly as a diversion to Battle of the Somme, that was taking place about 80 kilometres (50 mi) to the south and an operation to retake a salient just north of the German-occupied village of Fromelles, 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) from the city of Lille, Fromelles was a combined operation between British troops and the Australian Imperial Force (AIF). It would be the first occasion that the AIF saw action on the Western Front. After a night and a day of fighting, 1,500 British and 5,533 Australian soldiers were killed, wounded or taken prisoner. The Australian War Memorial describes the battle as "the worst 24 hours in Australia's entire history. " It was a decisive victory for Germany, and the Australian and British losses were sustained without the Allies gaining any ground.
- La Batalla de Fromelles (o de Fleurbaix) fue una fallida ofensiva anglo-australiana en el marco de la Batalla del Somme que tuvo lugar entre los días 19 y 20 de julio de 1916 en el Frente Occidental de la Primera Guerra Mundial. Fromelles fue el debut de las tropas australianas en Francia y también su peor resultado en todo el transcurso de la Gran Guerra. La acción tuvo lugar justo al norte de la villa de Fromelles, situada a unos 16 km de Lille y ocupada por tropas alemanas. El ataque se planificó como una maniobra de distracción que atrajera la atención de los alemanes y relajara así la situación en el valle del Somme para los aliados, e incluía la toma de un saliente de terreno en el que los germanos se habían atrincherado.
