Battle of Wad Kaltabu

The Battle of Wad Kaltabu, also known as the Battle of Kalnabu, was a military engagement fought on 22 April 1837 between the forces of Kenfu Haile Giorgis, a nobleman of Dembiya, and an Ottoman-Egyptian force led by Ahmad Kashif. Due to the similarities between the Battle of Gallabat (1837), and Wadkaltabu which would occur a month later, the two events are often conflated and details mixed up.
