Battle of Turbessel (1108)

The Battle of Turbessel (1108), was a Crusader conflict fought in Turbessel between an alliance led by Baldwin II of Edessa, and Jawali Saqawa, and another alliance led by Tancred, Regent of Antioch, and Ridwan, Sultan of Aleppo. It is considered the first and one of the rarest battles of its kind in the history of the Crusades, as it involved a Muslim-Crusader alliance fighting another Muslim-Crusader alliance.
