Italian Troops in East Africa: Resting in Trenches – Second Italo-Ethiopian War (1936)
This rare image captures Italian soldiers entrenched on the Ethiopian front during the Second Italo-Ethiopian War, around 1936. Italy, under Benito Mussolini’s fascist regime, invaded Ethiopia in a bid to expand its colonial empire in Africa. The war was marked by intense trench warfare, brutal tactics, and international controversy over Italy’s use of chemical weapons.
