It seems Dardanelles Operation is the same topic as this one. Chessy999 00:35, 7 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

No, they are completely different. The Dardanelles Operation was undertaken by the Royal Navy in order to control the shore, while the Battle of the Dardanelles was fought by the Russian Navy out in the open. --Ghirla-трёп- 06:07, 7 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
