The Samarrah Offensive (March 13 – April 23, 1917) was launched by the British against the Ottomans as part of the Mesopotamian Campaign in World War I.
After Baghdad fell to the British on March 11, 1917, there were still 10,000 Ottoman troops north of the city, led by Khalil Pasha, who could represent a threat to Anglo-Indian forces.
Furthermore, another 15,000 Ottomans under Ali Ihsan Bey were being driven out of Persia by the Russians, and were attempting at joining Khalil's forces in northern Iraq.
The British commander, Frederick Stanley Maude, decided that, in order to avert these threats, he had to take control of the Samarrah railroad, running 130 km (81 mi) north of Baghdad.
Operations began on March 13, carried forth by 45,000 British troops. On March 19, they conquered Fallujah, a crucial step toward the offensive's goal. The British continued their attacks until April 23, when the town of Samarrah and its railroad fell into their hands.
Although it achieved its aims, the Samarrah offensive cost the British about 18,000 casualties, a considerable price (plus another 38,000 who were taken ill).

＞The Samarrah Offensive (March 13 – April 23, 1917) was launched by the British against the Ottomans as part of the Mesopotamian Campaign in World War I.

⇒サマラフ攻撃（1917年3月13日 – 4月23日）は、第一次世界大戦中のメソポタミア野戦の一部として、英国軍がオスマントルコ軍に対して仕かけた。
1917年3月11日にバグダッドが英国軍の手に落ちたあとでもまだ10,000人のオスマントルコ軍部隊が都市の北にあって、ハリル・パシャの指揮下、英印軍団に対する脅威の代表たり得た。

＞Furthermore, another 15,000 Ottomans under Ali Ihsan Bey were being driven out of Persia by the Russians, and were attempting at joining Khalil's forces in northern Iraq.　The British commander, Frederick Stanley Maude, decided that, in order to avert these threats, he had to take control of the Samarrah railroad, running 130 km (81 mi) north of Baghdad.
⇒さらに、アリ・イフサン・ベイ指揮下に15,000人のオスマントルコ軍がロシア軍によってペルシャから追い出されていて、北イラクのハリル軍に加わろうと試みていた。英国軍の指揮官フレデリック・スタンリー・モードは、これらの脅威を避けるためにサマラフ鉄道を統制しなければならないと決意して、バグダッドの北130km（81マイル）へ走った。

＞Operations began on March 13, carried forth by 45,000 British troops. On March 19, they conquered Fallujah, a crucial step toward the offensive's goal. The British continued their attacks until April 23, when the town of Samarrah and its railroad fell into their hands.

⇒作戦行動が3月13日に始まり、45,000人のイギリス軍によって前進攻撃を遂行した。3月19日に、彼らは攻撃のゴ目標に向かう重要な一段階であるファルジャフを征服した。英国軍は4月23日まで攻撃を続け、サマラフの町とその鉄道を掌握した。
狙いは達成されたけれども、サマラフ攻撃には、約18,000人の英国軍犠牲者という（さらに、病気にかかった38,000人を加えて）かなりの額の費用がかかった。
