In this episode of The History of the Mongols - After Hülegü’s sack of Baghdad in 1258, the Mongols swept into Syria, taking Aleppo and Damascus. With Egypt next, Qutuz and Baybars marched out to meet Kitbuqa in Galilee at Ayn Jalut in 1260. We track the fall of Aleppo and Damascus, Frankish neutrality at Acre, the Mamluk coalition, and the battle that stopped the Mongol advance toward Cairo.
