Siege of Baghdad (1625–1626)
text:
The Siege of Baghdad (1625–1626) began as an Ottoman re-conquest attempt against the Safavids. The Safavids took Baghdad in 1624, leading to the Ottoman Grand Vizier Hafız Ahmed Pasha forming an expedition to retake Baghdad in 1625. Although they breached the outer fortifications, Persian reinforcements under Shah Abbas stopped them. Unsuccessful assaults and supply issues led to the Ottomans lifting the siege in July 1626 and retreating to Mosul, resulting in a strategic Persian victory.
