The conquest of Malatya was led by Tankiz, the viceroy of Syria, under the orders of Sultan al-Nasir Muhammad, resulting in the annexation of Malatya to the Mamluk Sultanate.
The Egyptian Mamluk forces marched from Cairo and joined up with the forces of Tankiz in the Levant. The fortress of Malatya was conquered and plundered for three days after fighting against Armenian and Mongol forces on 28 April 1315, expanding the scope of the Egyptian Sultanate. Raids were launched on other Armenian fortresses.
