Mongol capture of Damascus

The Capture of Damascus (1299) was the occupation of the city of Damascus by the forces of the Ilkhanate under Ghazan Khan during the Ilkhanid–Mamluk war. Following the Mongol victory over the Mamluk Sultanate at the Battle of Wadi al-Khazandar in December 1299, Mongol forces advanced into Syria and entered Damascus after it was abandoned by its defenders.
