After the Euphrates Federation was pressured into cutting ties with Jamhas and withdrawing troops from Farisia, the leader of the Front, Abdul Deif, decided to accept Jamhas' status as a now rogue organization without the restraints of ruining their former funder and creator's reputation. Jamhas used their new arsenal given to them from Euphratic forces to besiege the quaint costal town of Hadikeh Plains, currently under Hahaj leadership at the time of writing this. Outraged by yet another attack on civilian areas by the "Wrongfully named 'Peacekeepers'", as Abu Mulathim called them, Jaysh al-Tauhid along with the Rijal al-Isa Brigades and Joint Response Force launched defensive operation "Zulfiqar" in order to further weaked Jamhas' efforts and to push them away from Hadikeh. The battle was brutal, with ~150 Jamhas casualties and ~200 "Coalition" casualites. The battle ended with the fleeing Jamhas combatants pledging revenge on the "Khawarijites and Crusaders that attacked us wrongfully", Hadikeh being restablized, and Jamhas' combat capabilities being weakened, with 20% of their already small tank force being taken out by the battle alone.
