  • The Battle of Nablus took place, together with the Battle of Sharon during the set piece Battle of Megiddo between 19 and 25 September 1918 in the last months of the Sinai and Palestine Campaign of the First World War. Fighting took place in the Judean Hills where the British Empire's XX Corps attacked the Ottoman Empire's Yildirim Army Group's Seventh Army defending their line in front of Nablus. This battle was also fought on the right flank in the Jordan Valley, where Chaytor's Force attacked and captured the Jordan River crossings, before attacking the Fourth Army at Es Salt and Amman capturing many thousands of prisoners and extensive territory. The Battle of Nablus began half a day after the main Battle of Sharon, which was fought on the Mediterranean section of the front line where the XXI Corps attacked the Eighth Army defending the line in front of Tulkarm and Tabsor and the Desert Mounted Corps which rode north to capture the Esdrealon Plain. Together these two battles, known as the Battle of Megiddo, began the Final Offensive of the war in the Sinai and Palestine campaign. By the afternoon of 19 September, it was clear that the breakthrough attacks in the Battle of Sharon by the XXI Corps had been successful, and the XX Corps was ordered to begin the Battle of Nablus by attacking the well-defended Ottoman front line, supported by an artillery barrage. These attacks continued late into the night and throughout the next day, until the early hours of 21 September when the continuing successful flanking attack by the XXI Corps, combined with the XX Corps assault and aerial bombing attacks, forced the Seventh and Eighth Armies to disengage. The Ottoman Seventh Army retreated from the Nablus area down the Wadi el Fara road towards the Jordan River, aiming to cross at the Jisr ed Damieh bridge, leaving a rearguard to defend Nablus. The town was captured by the XX Corps and the 5th Light Horse Brigade, while devastating aerial bombing of the Wadi el Fara road, blocked that line of retreat. As all objectives had now been won, no further attacks were required of the XX Corps, which captured thousands of prisoners in the area and at Nablus and Balata. Defending the right flank and subsidiary to the Nablus battle, the Third Transjordan attack began on 22 September when Meldrum's Force, a section of Chaytor's Force captured the 53rd Ottoman Division on the Wadi el Fara road, running from Nablus to the bridge at Jisr ed Damieh over the Jordan River. Further sections of the retreating Seventh Army column were attacked and captured, during the subsequent battle for the bridge when several fords were also captured along with the bridge, cutting this main Ottoman line of retreat eastwards. As the Fourth Army began its retreat, Chaytor's Force supported by reconnaissance and attacking aircraft, advanced from Jisr ed Damieh to the east to capture Es Salt on 23 September. This force continued its advance eastwards, to capture Amman on 25 September, after a strong Fourth Army rearguard was defeated there. The southern Hedjaz section of the Fourth Army was captured to the south of Amman, at Ziza on 29 September, ending military operations in the area. Following the victory at Megiddo, the Final Offensive continued when Damascus was captured on 1 October, after several days of pursuit by the Desert Mounted Corps. A further pursuit resulted in the occupation of Homs. On 26 October, the attack at Haritan, north of Aleppo, was under-way when the Armistice of Mudros was signed between the Allies and the Ottoman Empire, ending the Sinai and Palestine campaign. (en)
  • A Batalha de Nablus teve lugar, juntamente com a Batalha de Sarom, durante a batalha principal em Megido, entre 19 e 25 de setembro de 1918, nos meses finais da Campanha do Sinai e da Palestina da Primeira Guerra Mundial. O combate teve lugar nas Montanhas da Judeia onde o XX Corpo Império Britânico atacou o Sétimo Exército otomano dos Grupo de Exércitos Yıldırım, que defendia a sua linha à frente de Nablus. Esta batalha também teve lugar no lado direito do vale do Jordão, onde a Força de Chaytor atacou e capturou as principais travessias do rio Jordão, antes de atacar o Quarto Exército otomano em Es Salt e Amã, fazendo milhares de prisioneiros e conquistando uma vasta área de território. A Batalha de Nablus começou meio dia depois da batalha principal em Sarom, realizada no zona do Mar Mediterrâneo da linha da frente, onde o XXI Corpo britânico atacou o Oitavo Exército otomano que defendia a linha frontal das batalhas de Tulcarém e de Tabsor, e do Corpo Montado do Deserto o qual partiu para norte para capturar a Planície Esdrealon. Juntas, estas duas batalhas, conhecidas como a Batalha de Megido, deram início à Ofensiva Final da guerra na Campanha do Sinai e na Palestina. Na tarde de 19 de setembro, ficou claro que os ataques do XXI Corpo na Batalha de Sarom, tinham sido bem-sucedidos, e o XX Corpo recebeu ordens para dar início à Batalha de Nablus atacando a bem defendida linha da frente otomana, apoiado por bombardeamentos de barragem. Os ataques continuaram pela noite e dia seguinte, até às primeiras horas do dia 21 de setembro quando, o bem-sucedido ataque de flanco do XXI Corpo, combinado pelo assalto do XX Corpo, e bombardeamento aéreo, forçou os Sétimo e Oitavo Exércitos a desistir do combate. O Sétimo Exército retirou para a zona de Nablus, pela estrada de Wadi el Fara até ao rio Jordão, esperando atravessar a ponte Jisr ed Damieh, deixando uma força de retaguarda para defender Nablus. A cidade foi capturada pelos XX Corpo e 5.ª Brigada de Cavalaria Ligeira, enquanto era realizado um forte bombardeamento aéreo da estrada de Wadi el Fara, que bloqueou aquela linha de retirada. Como todos os objetivos tinham sido atingidos, os ataques do XX Corpo terminaram, e capturaram milhares de prisioneiros na região de Nablus e Balata. Na defesa do flanco direito, e acessório à batalha de Nablus, tem início o terceiro ataque transjordano em 22 de setembro quando a força de Meldrum, uma secção da Força de Chaytor, capturou a 53.ª Divisão otomana na via de Wadi el Fara, que fugia de Nablus para a ponte em Jisr ed Damieh, sobre o rio Jordão. Outras secções em retirada do Sétimo Exército também foram atacadas e capturadas, durante a subsequente batalha pela ponte, cortando esta linha principal de retirada otomana para leste. Quando o Quarto Exército deu início à sua retirada, a Força de Chaytor, apoiada por patrulhas de reconhecimento e aeronaves, avançou desde Jisr ed Damieh para leste, para capturar Es Salt em 23 de setembro. Esta força continuou o seu avanço em direção a leste para capturar Amã a 25 de setembro, depois de ter derrotado uma forte retaguarda do Quarto Exército ali. A secção sul de Hedjaz do Quarto Exército, foi capturada a sul de Amã, em Ziza, em 29 de setembro, pondo fim às operações militares naquela área. Depois da vitória em Megido, a ofensiva final continuou quando Damasco foi capturada em 1 de outubro, depois de vários dias de perseguição pelo Corpo do Deserto Montado. Uma outra perseguição resultou na ocupação de Homs. A 26 de outubro, o ataque em Haritan, a norte de Alepo, estava a decorrer quando o Armistício de Mudros foi assinado entre os Aliados e o Império Otomano, terminando com a Campanha do Sinai e da Palestina.
