Why did the anzac soldiers landed in the wrong place at gallipoli?

The ANZAC soldiers landed in the wrong place at Gallipoli due to a combination of poor reconnaissance and miscommunication. The original plan called for a landing at the intended beaches, but the fog and darkness led to navigational errors. Additionally, the Turkish defenders had fortified the actual landing sites, making the chosen area at Anzac Cove more vulnerable than anticipated. These factors contributed to the confusion and difficulties faced by the ANZAC forces during the campaign.
