Abstract
After the outbreak of the First World War in 1914, the British forces entered Iraq ‎through Al-Faw and began to move and go to occupy the rest of the Iraqi brigades ‎that are still under Ottoman rule, including the Dulaim District. And other areas of ‎the brigade. In addition to the Dulaim Tribes, there were also families from the ‎homes of Fallujah, the most important of which was the Kanna family. These ‎families had an important role in resisting the British occupation, not only in the ‎Dulaim District, but in the rest of the Iraqi lands.‎ The research showed that the tribal leaders in the Al-Dulaim Brigade had an important and effective contribution to the battles that took place between the British and Ottoman forces, urged by the jihad worker in order to advance the word of Islam, as some of these sheikhs participated in the Battle of Al-Mada’in, and they had a major role in fighting the British forces and disrupted their supply lines. They cut off part of it with their combat operations. In addition, the upper Euphrates areas from Ramadi to Deir ez-Zor and beyond were deep for the tribal forces supporting the Ottoman forces.
