Australian troops resting after the Battle of Megiddo between British Empire forces and Ottoman Turkish forces,19-25 September,1918.

The Battle of Megiddo (Turkish: Megiddo Muharebesi) also known in Turkish as the Nablus Hezimeti ('Rout of Nablus') was fought between 19 and 25 September 1918, on the Plain of Sharon, in front of Tulkarm, Tabsor and Arara in the Judean Hills as well as on the Esdralon Plain at Nazareth, Afulah, Beisan, Jenin and Samakh. During the extensive set piece Battle of Sharon, four corps were deployed against three opposing armies. The Ottoman Empire front line was broken and captured by British Empire infantry, allowing the cavalry to subsequently almost encircle the Ottoman Eighth and Seventh Armies still fighting in the Judean Hills. The subsidiary Battle of Nablus was fought virtually simultaneously in the Judean Hills in front of Nablus and at crossings of the Jordan River.
