Today, The 25th of April is ANZAC Day. ANZAC is a national day of remembrance in Australia and New Zealand. Let’s look into this memorial celebration that happens every year by listening to this SBS Sinhala radio current affair feature on the background of ANZAC day.

An Australian soldier lies wounded in the foreground, as hundreds of other soldiers move among the dead and wounded on the beach at Anzac Cove on the day of the landing. Many of the soldiers are wearing red cross arm bands and are tending to the wounded. Boxes of equipment are stacked among the men and the beach is also littered with discarded personal equipment.
