The Battle of Palmyra was part of the Allied invasion of Syria during the Syria-Lebanon campaign in World War II, that took place from 21 June to 2 July 1941. British mechanised cavalry and an Arab Legion desert patrol broke up a Vichy French mobile column northeast of the city of Palmyra, provoked by the Vichy garrison's surrender.
