The Red Crescent boasts over 300,000 POW cards from all sides of the conflict containing the names and origins of prisoners, their place of capture, and sometimes other biographical or health information. The collection also contain letters and requests from prisoners of war during the conflict. In this regard, researchers of other regions such as Europe or South Asia will find these archives useful as the Red Crescent was the intermediary between the Allies and Allied prisoners held in Ottoman territories.<ref>"Hazine Article: Red Crescent Archives (Turkey)", https://hazine.info/turkish-red-crescent-kizilay-archives-ankara/, accessed 28 December 2022.</ref>] | |||
