- La battaglia di Lone Pine, conosciuta anche come la Battle of Kanlı Sırt, fu una battaglia combattuta fra gli australiani e i turchi, durante la prima guerra mondiale tra il 6 e il 10 agosto 1915. Essa fu parte di un diversivo per attirare l'attenzione dall'assalto principale del 6 agosto, l'offensiva d'agosto contro i picchi di Chunuk Bair e la Quota 971. Gli australiani inizialmente conquistarono le principali trincee turche, difese da un singolo battaglione. I combattimenti proseguirono per il successivi tre giorni, durante i quali i rinforzi turchi tentarono di riconquistare il terreno perso con numerosi contrattacchi. Con il proseguire degli scontri anche gli australiani rinforzarono i loro reparti, inviando in prima linea due brigate. Infine, il 9 agosto i turchi smisero di attaccare e entro il 10 ogni azione offensiva cessò. Nonostante la vittoria australiana, la vasta offensiva fallì, creando uno stallo delle forze in campo che durò fino alla fine della campagna, nel dicembre 1915.

It was part of a diversion to draw attention from the main assaults of 6 August against the Sari Bair peaks of Chunuk Bair and Hill 971, which became known as the August Offensive. The Australians, initially at brigade strength, managed to capture the main Turkish trench line from the battalion that was defending the position in the first few hours of the fighting, however, the fighting continued for the next three days as the Turks brought up reinforcements launched numerous counterattacks in an attempt to recapture the ground they had lost. As the counterattacks intensified the Australians brought up two fresh brigades. Finally, on 9 August the Turks called off any further attempts and by 10 August offensive action ceased, leaving the Australians in control of the position. Nevertheless, despite the Australian victory, the wider August Offensive of which the attack had been a part failed and a situation of stalemate developed which would last until the end of the campaign in December 1915.
