Atilla & Aphrodite - Cyprus '74

After over a decade of political collapse, in 1974 Greek-Cypriot nationalists toppled the Cypriot government, causing Turkey to invoke the treaty of guarantee to restore order to the island only a week later, landing troops on 21st July 1974. In only a few weeks of fighting they would take a third of the island and just under another decade later would declare the Republic of Northern Cyprus.
It's an odd experience seeing historical footage of tanks on exact spots I've stood.

These footages are very rare. Even colored pics are hard to find
Agreed. but ngl, Thames TV is like one of the YT channels that have like the most rare footage and reporting of one of the most, let's say 'not usually talked about' wars, such as Lebanon(even pre-civil war) and Cyprus itself.
In the immortal words of MajorSamm, "it can all be found on RUclips"
@@masterofrockets Words to live by.
@@MajorSamm Do you have the Chronovisor?
@@MajorSamm where do you get the footage?
Aphrodite was the name of the Greek's defence plan while Atilla was the name of the Turk's landing plan. MajorSamm at it, again.
..YES , ..! You are RIGHT !..well , ..1974 , was a SET UP war for US CYPRIOTS to loose it . you see , what ever our compatriots Turkish cypriots never manage to do from 1963-1967 ..! to develop TURKEYS ..TAKSIM plans , ! We had GREECE , from 1971-1974 ..playing.. Dirty games against US G.CYPRIOTS , and with the coup against our loyal goverment ..1974 ..gave the legal chance to TURKEY to put a step on the island ..! ..EVEN if they knew , that the Turkish army was getting ready to invate .., even if they knew that ..the Turkish army was in their ships outsite ..Kyrenia . ! .GREECE , NEVER let our local army leaders ( that time , 85% ,of the army officers., was from Greece ../ ..5-10 of them , ..was on the high rung positions ,.. ) to take a single measurer..! NEVER develop the islands ..Defence plans ! ..Turkeys air force actually bombed our army units in their ..camps/ ..on their sleep actually ..!..
.. The invation was happening on 5.20..and the Cyptiots army ..starded to react ..at 8.30...
ALSO ,..i must mention ,that since from the 23 of july till the 14 of Augast ..during the. " case fire " agreement , the Turks ,unload their 35.000 troops ,and 150-200 tanks and armour vehicles , ..
well ,after that ..NOBODY could stop them ..!
from GREECE , in that time we had only a reinforcement of a commando unit ( ..most propably., they came by their oun risk ).. and ..THREATS ..for NOT to bothered them ( the Turks ) doing so..
..So , actually ..GREECE , ..playing the game till the end , following instructions from.. Americans / Kissinger , ..NATO....and ofcourse , ENGLAND ..( that nation was/is behind EVERYTHING )! ..BETREYED US CYPRIOTS , ..and HELP TURKEY to be here ..!..
Finally , those three quarandor powers of OUR.. independence..!..
( GREECE , TURKEY , and ENGLAND ). .they do EVERYTHING for.. to ..destroy ..US CYPRIOTS..!

May he rest in peace. He died aged 78.

Gurbet by Özdemir Erdogan - what a choice for song to go with this historical footage. Gurbet translates to expatriate. The song is about the thoughts one has when away from home and family. I can imagine many of the young men in this video had the same thoughts while fighting in Cyprus.
More specifically it was about Turks in Europe living in a white man's society. But go off

Nice to see a vid on a conflict rarely spoken about, makes you wonder how long Cyprus will stay divided. Also most people probably don't even know that there's still a DMZ on Cyprus. Anyway, top tier content as per usual Major, thanks for the vid and have a good one.
I don't know about the South but there's still even road patrols and UN troops on guard in towns in the North, it's odd to have such a normal place be so militarized. Glad you enjoyed the video, have a good one too.
@@MajorSamm South is too pretty militarized. I dont see anythign changing in the near future.
in a Greek Cypriot soldier and i serve on the border ask anything you want
That city in the DMZ is really eerie. It was such a nice vacation spot before it got closed down. There are videos of Urban explorers dodging UN patrols and looking at all the run down ruins, it's very interesting.
it will remain divided as long as we Brits feel we require the Air base... so forever.
who cares? certainly no one living there
This is only one of a few translations. But they are all really similar.
[Verse 1]
To whom should I tell my sorrow, o clouds?
People who we regard as brothers hurt us deeply
And then there is homesickness, which hurts the most
Tell me, are there news from the homeland?
[Pre-Chorus]
Are these rains perhaps the tears of my beloved?
Tell me, are there news from the homeland?
Are these rains perhaps the tears of my bеloved?

I am burning inside, my wound is deep
Bring me somе news from my delicate beloved
I am burning inside, my wound is deep
Bring me some news from my delicate beloved
[Verse 2]
Clouds, say hello to my love
Tell her that the day of reunion is near
If fate sent me far away from my love
What can I do abroad all alone?
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, is it possible to live far away from love?

I’m sure Prince Philip being Greek helped form the British governments and the British people’s view on the conflict.
After the canceled landing operation, which was canceled twice, the eoka militants (Greeks) -who is living on the island- played the song "Bekledimde Gelmedin" in order to make fun of the Turks . After the paratroopers land on the island on July 20 on the radio the song "Bir Gece Ansızın Gelebilirim" was playing.
During the Paratrooper landings in Gonyeli half of the 150 Paratroopers got shot while dropping or got stuck on carob trees
@@Chorophilax I didn't know this, thanks.
@@Chorophilax At the end of the operation, 498 Turkish soldier lost their lives.
498 soldiers ! ..actually ...is NOTHING , compare ..the half island . ! .. WELL DANE boys ! ..
We , G.Cypriots , we had about 900 soldiers , killed in action ...about 1600 . missing persons ( POWs. civilians , women's , children's ..and old people , )..and 2.500 been merdered by your braves ..!
Also it's quite interesting that the Turks before the invasion used -to live- all over the island. After the war all the Turks had to move to the northern 36% of the island leaving the majority of the island under Greek-Cypriot control.
My dad was deployed to Cyprus with the Canadian Airborne Regiment. Thank you for the small glimpse of what it might have been like for him.
From 1955 to 1978 Cyprus was hell , then again there were tensions in 96' but not it is holidays for UN troops
My grandpa also deployed to cyprus with the turkish airborne soldiers.
The Canadians along to the British members of UN forces were guide the Turks to the Hellenic positions ...disgusting
@@Alexander29854 Those are the forces which stopped the Turks from taking the entire island.
It was clear the Greeks had no intention to fight. I'd imagine they found slaughtering civilians much easier.
@@Alexander29854 on the contrary, Canadian "Peacekeepers" stopped the Turks from taking over the entire island.
They occupied that airport to prevent its capture as Turks weren't insane enough to attack UN troops.
If that airport had fallen to Turks, they would have brought their jets there and have total air superiority over the Cyprus.
Distance between Turkey and Cyprus was the only thing that prevented the Turks from bombing Greeks to oblivion.
My father was a Uh-1h pilot in TAF. One day he was flying on his mission to Nicosia. Those Cypriot National Guards did their best to defend their positions. Some anti material bullets hit my dad's huey, but somehow he could took wounded Turkish commandos & turned back to his base. He was unharmed. Now he is 77 years old. Enjoying his peaceful days in Foça.
He has got respect for both sides who didn't harm civilians.

G3 is German

This topic is almost not covered, I think it would be an interesting video. Thank you in advance.

I swear, half of the videos MajorSamm makes are of conflicts I have no idea even occured. Good work man.
as someone who is half turkish and half greek cyp it’s more of a bitter feeling especially when i did research on the background of the song. my dad moved to australia (where i currently live) in the 70s to escape the war, as my uncles stayed and fought. i am often made fun of and shamed when i have to tell other turks i am half greek and they frown upon it and personally for me it’s childish. it was not something we started. it was also a very long time ago. nonetheless it has not stopped me from embracing my greek culture, i have many friends who are greek and turkish myself.
and to my brothers on both sides. do not anger each other with bitter, sorrow memories. we are very alike in many ways.
I have a friend her name is Nil, her father is Armenian from Cyprus and mother is Turkish, she has citizenship from both sides because her father is Turkish Armenian, she has said Cypriot greeks are extreme fanatic racist ultranationalists and very mad
My grandma's godfather was a flight engineer in the noratlas transports which flew the greek comando division into the island.They flew unescoreded in radio silience and when they arrived were mistakenly indetifed as turkish aircraft . His plane was torn to pieces by friendly fire. This operation was one of the many unforgiven mistakes made by the hellenic government concernig cyprus. Rest in peace to all the fallen
Thank you for this video man!
Teşekkürler!
These videos you make are really seriously top notch, keep up the good work!
Visited Limassol in 2014. DMZ looked like a city left at peace in a time capsule, save the barbed wire and checkpoints. I pray for peace in Cyprus. Outstanding work, as always
There's no DMZ in Limassol I believe
@@bananabestfruit Nicosia* sorry, Limassol is where I stayed
Reading the description, have you really stood on the places of where these events took place? That's pretty cool man, I enjoy that you manage to make history interesting enough for us to look more into the topic.
Yeah, a lot of the North has stay relatively similar to the state it was in in 1974 up until the last few years. I've got photos of myself standing in spots where, when I was looking for footage, saw tanks parked on.
Anywho, I'm glad you enjoyed the video, it's great that I can get folks wanting to look more into things.
@@MajorSamm oh wait did you go to the Northern part? Thats cool
@@MajorSamm When did you go there? I was in Turkish Nicosia 1-2 years ago and it was a pretty surreal difference between the two parts. Going through the UN checkpoint was cool, though.
@@bmtsings4843 same. I also passed the ghost town (in the dmz i believe). Amazing place. You can see the lights on in buildings that haven't been lived in for decades now
@@noahhughes2501 I never noticed that. I just remember that the point in the DMZ where I went through (maybe that is the only place you can actually go through from Cyprus to Turkey) had a little cafeteria or the like still in use across the street from an abandoned building.
Really love how you find more obscure conflicts! Made me do some research and I’m always fascinated
It is hidden by a lot of countries because it was a betrayal against christians and a war between to NATO allies ( and not the first one in Cyprus )
I mean it's obscure to you. But not to those that are concerned. But I get what you mean.
Yet another Major Samm video I'm going to need a little background on because I've never heard of it before. Really bringing out the obscure conflicts lately Major, I'm enjoying the content.

Ah, another rare historic artifact unearthed. Thank you again, MajorSamm.
Nice vid man!
Really like your recent video style, keep it up this way.
I was listening a super eurobeat mix from the major and saw this pop up, what a pleasure
Woah, M1928 Thompson's in the 70's? Quite cool!
Airborne used Thompson in 60's and 70's
A lot of older equipment wa used. We used T34 and they actually went pretty good against american made M47 pattons
Up until then much of the Greek and Turkish arsenal was made up of NATO hand-me-downs. Poor countries, large materiel needs, they had to fill the gaps somehow. Since NATO could not give away its newest hardware the majority of EDAs were either WW2 or early post-war items.
@@becauseiwasinverted5222 Yeah both sides where fighting using the same or similar equipment, imagine hearing gunfire and not knowing if it was friendly or enemy
The turks at that time still used m1 garands in small numbers
Another great vid king
Wonderfull music decision mate, thanks for this great video

Türkiye için aslında iyi bir şeydi çünkü o yıllar ordu ve gıda da çok dışa bağımlıydık 1975 ten sonra roketsan,aselsanvb. Bu tür orduyu bağımsız yapacak fabrikalar kuruldu ama o yıllar da pek bir şeye yaramdı
Great video as always, and nice music choice
Aw man the editing and music👌👌
