Edessa Campaigns or Aq Qoyunlu–Mamluk War (1429–1433) was a series of military campaigns fought between the Aq Qoyunlu and the Mamluk Sultanate. The conflict started with Aq Qoyunlu raids into Mamluk territories, which prompted the Mamluks to invade. After capturing Urfa and besieging Amid, the Mamluks were eventually forced into a long stalemate. Ultimately, Uthman Beg, the ruler of the Aq Qoyunlu, decided to surrender, and the Aq Qoyunlu became a temporary vassal of the Mamluks. However, the peace treaty was broken shortly after, and the Aq Qoyunlu regained their independence.
