Israeli, Australian, and New Zealand leaders gathered in southern Israel on Tuesday to mark the 100th anniversary of a key cavalry charge that helped clear the way to Jerusalem during World War I.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu was joined by his Australian counterpart Malcolm Turnbull and New Zealand Governor-General Dame Patsy Reddy in Beer Sheva, where the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) defeated Ottoman troops to gain control of a strategic crossroads.
