The Partition of the Ottoman Empire: How Britain and France Reshaped the Middle East
The collapse of the Ottoman Empire after World War I dramatically transformed the political map of the Middle East. For more than four centuries, the Ottoman Empire had ruled vast territories stretching across the Middle East, North Africa, and parts of Europe. However, by the early twentieth century, the empire had weakened politically, economically, and militarily. When the Ottomans joined Germany and the Central Powers in World War I, Britain and France saw an opportunity to reshape the region according to their own strategic and economic interests. The result was the partition of Ottoman lands, an event that still shapes Middle Eastern politics today.

Several hundred residents of the village lived in the basement for a month
The city of Chernihiv was surrounded in the first days of the war, and it was liberated only in early April. The surrounding villages were even less fortunate — russian troops entered there on February 24. The village of Yahidne, located south of Chernihiv and 150 kilometres from Kyiv, was occupied in early March. About 400 local residents were taken prisoner, they sat for a month in the dark, cramped basement of a small local school. The occupiers looted homes, took away clothes, linen, and household appliances. Sometimes residents were allowed to leave the basement and cook some food on the fire. During the occupation, the Russians shot, according to various sources, 20 civilians. Journalist Ilya Kabachynskyi came to Yahidne to see the conditions in which the locals lived, talked to them about what was happening, and went down to the same basement where 11 people died.
