Baghdad, the capital city of the ʿAbbasid caliphate, had fallen to the Mongols under the Il-Khan Hulegu in 1258, and the last ʿAbbasid caliph had been put to death. In 1259 the Mongol army, led by the Christian Turk Kitbuga, moved into Syria, took Damascus and Aleppo, and reached the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. The Mongols then sent an envoy to Cairo in 1260 to demand the submission of al-Muẓaffar Sayf al-Din Qutuz, the Mamluk sultan, whose reply was the execution of the envoy. The two powers then prepared for battle.
