Saudi–Rashidi_War_(1903–1907)
The First Saudi–Rashidi War, also referred as the Battles over Qasim, (1903—1907) was a conflict between Saudi loyalist forces of the newborn Emirate of Riyadh and the Emirate of Ha'il (Jabal Shammar), supported by the Rashidis. The pro-Ottoman Rashidis were supported by 8 battalions of Ottoman infantry. The majority of the war was fought out in a series of sporadic battles, which ended with a Saudi takeover of the al-Qassim region following their decisive victory at Qassim on April 13, 1906,[1] though additional engagements followed in 1907.
