The Battle of Qarqar took place in 853 BC near the Orontes River in present-day Syria. It was a decisive confrontation between the forces of the Neo-Assyrian Empire, led by King Shalmaneser III, and a coalition of Syro-Palestinian states. This alliance included notable kingdoms such as Hamath, Aram-Damascus, and Israel, united under the leadership of King Hadadezer of Damascus and King Ahab of Israel. This coalition aimed to halt the westward expansion of the powerful Assyrian Empire.
