Years: 1260 - 1260
A new internal conflict in Turkestan has forced Hulagu to stop the Mongol invasion before it reaches Egypt; he has departed with the bulk of his forces, leaving only about ten thousand Mongol horsemen in Syria under Kitbuqa to occupy the conquered territory, including Nablus and Gaza in the south, as well as the fortress of Ajlun, east of River Jordan.
When the news of the sack of Aleppo reached an-Nasir Yusuf, he and his army had fled towards Gaza on January 31, stopping at Nablus for several days and leaving a contingent which may have been intended as a rearguard.
After the capture of Damascus, some of the Mongol troops raid Palestine, and fight with an-Nasir's troops in the olive groves of Nablus, defeating the entire force.
