Falklands War

In the early 1980s, a remote archipelago in the South Atlantic became the unlikely stage for a fierce conflict between two nations. The Falklands War, a 10-week undeclared war between Argentina and the United Kingdom, erupted over long-standing territorial disputes. On April 2, 1982, Argentine forces invaded and occupied the Falkland Islands, igniting a diplomatic crisis that quickly escalated into armed conflict. The British government, led by Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, responded swiftly, dispatching a naval task force to reclaim the islands. What followed was a dramatic military campaign that captured the world's attention, testing the resolve of both nations and leaving an indelible mark on history.
