[00:00:00]700,000 casualties.

[00:00:02]In just 10 months, [music] Verdun became the deadliest battlefield the world had ever seen. Over 2 million [music] soldiers clashed in a nightmarish struggle. Every single day, nearly 2,000 men [music] lost their lives.

[00:00:14]Artillery ruled the land. Over 40 million shells rained down, turning forests into twisted graveyards.

[00:00:21]Trenches [music] stretched for miles, filled with mud, blood, and fear. Whole villages vanished [music] beneath relentless barrages. 70,000 soldiers were never found. [music] 10,000 tanks and guns shattered. The sky roared with thunderous aircraft, and the earth shook as cities burned. The front line barely moved, just a few miles gained [music] or lost after months of slaughter. Entire divisions disappeared in days. The living envied the dead. By the end, the land was unrecognizable, an endless wasteland of craters and bones.

[00:00:53]Verdun was [music] not just a battle. It was a machine of destruction, a place where history measured human life in rivers of blood and mountains of shattered steel. The scars of Verdun echo through time, a brutal testament to war's unimaginable cost.
