From the spring of 1915, the hospitals & convalescent depots established on Malta & Gozo dealt with over 135,000 sick & wounded, chiefly from the campaigns in Gallipoli & Salonika, although increased submarine activity in the Mediterranean meant fewer hospital ships were sent to the island from 5|1917. Pieta Military Cemetery has 1303 Commonwealth casualties of WWI buried or commemorated here, incl. 20 Indian servicemen cremated at Lazaretto Cemetery.
