The Battle of Karakilisa (Armenian: Ղարաքիլիսայի ճակատամարտ Gharakilisayi chakatamart, Turkish: Karakilise Muharebesi or Karakilise Muharebeleri) was a battle of Caucasus Campaign of World War I that took place in the vicinity of Karakilisa (now Vanadzor), on May 25-28, 1918.The outnumbered Armenian defenders managed to turn back the invading Ottoman forces, which broke the armistice, signed on December 1917, with Transcaucasian commissariat entering Western Armenia, conquering Erznka, Erzerum, Sarighamish, Kars and Alexandropol and reaching Karakilisa. The victory here as well as at Sardarabad and Abaran were instrumental in allowing the First Republic of Armenia to come into existence.
In several months, the cities of Erznka, Erzerum, Sarikamish, Kars and Alexandropol were conquered. On May 20, they conquered the Akhbulag, Djrajur and Kaltakhchi villages. On May 21, they conquered Vorontsovka. Pressed by the Turkish regular army, Armenian forces were retreating. Part of Ottoman-Turkish forces moved to Yerevan, another one to Karakilisa. The latter forces included about 10 thousand soldiers, 70 pieces of artillery and 40 machine-guns. The Armenian population was leaving their homes moving to the south to Yerevan and Syunik. Garegin Nzhdeh (with his troops) reached Karakilisa and managed to unite the population for the fight. The Armenian forces reached the number of 6 thousand, with 70 pieces of artillery and 20 machine-guns. After a violent battle of 4 days, on May 25-28, both sides had serious losses. Although the Ottoman army managed to invade Karakilisa and massacre all its population of 4,000 souls, it had no more forces to intrude farther into Armenian territories.
Wehib Pasha speaking to his headquarters,
“
We do not have the strength to defeat the Armenians. The three day battle in Karakilise shows that as long as their existence is in danger they will prefer to die fighting. We must not bring on a battle with the force that 1,200,000 Armenians can raise. If the Georgians join in the hostilities, it will be impossible to advance... In short, we must come to terms with the Armenians and Georgians.

＞The Battle of Karakilisa (Armenian: Ղարաքիլիսայի ճակատամարտ Gharakilisayi chakatamart, Turkish: Karakilise Muharebesi or Karakilise Muharebeleri) was a battle of Caucasus Campaign of World War I that took place in the vicinity of Karakilisa (now Vanadzor), on May 25-28, 1918.

⇒「カラキリサの戦い」（アルメニア語：Gharakilisayi chakatamart、トルコ語：Karakilise Muharebesi、またはKarakilise Muharebeleri）は、1918年5月25日－28日にカラキリサ（現バナゾール）の近くで行われた第一次世界大戦のうちのコーカサス野戦の戦いであった。数的に優位に立つアルメニアの守備陣が1917年12月にアルメニア西部に侵入し、エルズンカ、エルゼルム、サリガミッシュ、カルス、アレクサンドロポルを征服してカラキリサに到着し、侵攻したオスマン帝国の軍隊を1917年12月に撤退させた。サルダラバードとアバランでの勝利は、アルメニア第一共和国の存在を可能にするのに役立った。

⇒エルズンカ、エルゼルム、サリガミッシュ、カルス、アレクサンドロポルの都市が数か月で征服された。5月20日、彼らはアクブラグ、ジラジュル、カルタクフチの村を征服した。5月21日、彼らはボロンツォフカを征服した。トルコの正規軍に押されて、アルメニア軍団は（劣勢に転じて）後退した。オスマントルコ軍の一部はイェレヴァンに移り、他の一部はカラキリサに移った。後者の軍団は、約1万人の兵士、70門の大砲、40丁の機関銃を要していた。

⇒アルメニアの人民は、自宅を南方のイェレヴァンとシュニクに移動していた。ガレジン・ヌズデルは（彼の軍隊と共に）カラキリサに達し、戦いのために人民を統一することができた。アルメニアの軍団は、大砲70門と機関銃20丁を装備する6千人に達した。5月25日－28日の4日間の激しい戦闘の後、両軍とも深刻な損失を被った。オスマン帝国軍はカラキリサに侵入し、そこで全人民4,000人を虐殺したが、さらなるアルメニア領内に侵入する軍勢はなくなった。

⇒ウェヒブ・パシャは、彼の本部にこう話しかけた。「我々にはアルメニア軍を撃退する力はもうない。カラキリサでの3日間の戦いは、彼らの存在が危険にさらされている限り、彼らはむしろ戦って死ぬ方を選ぶ、ということを示しています。120万人のアルメニア人が蜂起する軍団と戦闘を始めるべきではありません。グルジア人が敵軍に加担すれば、進軍することも不可能です…。要するに、我々はアルメニア人・グルジア人と条約を交わす必要があります。」
