The Battle of Oramar or Oramar Expedition, was a battle in the present-day village of Dağlıca, Yüksekova, in Hakkari, that took place in September 1917 between the Assyrian volunteers of Agha Petros, supported by Russian Cossacks, against the Kurds of Soto Agha. The Assyrian forces initiated the attack with the goal of recapturing Oramar that was held by the Kurds since 1914, in order to punish Soto Agha for his previous crimes against the Assyrians during Sayfo.
