The well-mounted army of Andrew II of …
Years: 1217 - 1217
November
The well-mounted army of Andrew II of Hungary on November 10 defeats Sultan Al-Adil I at Bethsaida on the Jordan River.
Muslim forces retreat in their fortresses and towns.
The catapults and trebuchets do not arrive in time, so Andrew’s assaults on the fortresses of the Lebanon and on Mount Tabor are fruitless.
Andrew afterwards spends his time collecting alleged relics.
