The Battle of the Karbala Gap occurred during the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The Karbala Gap is a 20–25-mile wide strip of land with the Euphrates River to the east and Lake Razazah to the west. This strip of land was recognized by Iraqi commanders as a key approach to Baghdad, and was defended by the Medina and Nebuchadnezzar Divisions of the Iraqi Republican Guard. American forces attacked Iraqi forces in the area with massive air attacks followed by concentrated armored thrusts which resulted in the Iraqi units being surrounded and annihilated.

(en) La bataille de Kerbala oppose les forces de la Coalition (Américains) aux forces irakiennes (principalement composées de Fedayin) à Kerbala du 31 mars 2003 au 6 avril 2003, dans le cadre de l'opération Liberté irakienne. C'est une victoire américaine décisive, puisqu'elle permet aux forces américaines de lancer leur assaut final sur Bagdad qui se déroulera en avril. (fr)
