British aircraft dropping supplies to the (Great Arab Revolt) forces who stationed in the desert of Gaza, Palestine in 1917
Sharif Hussein bin Ali (the head of the Arab nationalists) announced his alliance with Britain & France after his correspondence with (McMahon), So they promised to support him in achieving complete Arab independence from the control of the Ottomans & the establishment of one Arab state extending from (Syria) to (Yemen). In return, they would use the Arab forces in their wars. But they (as usual) broke their promises, so their main goal in supporting the revolution was to achieve the provisions of (Sykes-Picot Agreement 1916) by dividing the Arab region & giving #Palestine to the Jews.
