Aerial warfare was a key part of British military strategy to defeat communist guerrillas during the Malayan Emergency. News of non-combatants being killed by RAF saturation bombing campaigns sparked heated debates in the British House of Commons over the military tactics employed by the British as part of Britain's counterinsurgency strategy against the guerilllas. The original photograph is a black and white copy negative, held by the UK Imperial War Museum, Catalogue number GOV 2267A. |
