Overview
In Sha'ban 669 AH Sultan al-Zahir Baybars took the fort of the Kurds, then besieged the fortress of Acre. 2
As Ibn al-Imad relates it
Ibn al-Imad says that Baybars took the fort of the Kurds by the sword, then besieged the fortress of Acre and took it on terms of safe-conduct. The lord of Tripoli submitted to him and gave him what he asked, and he made a truce with him for ten years. 2
The Gregorian date is derived from the Hijri year. The details of the siege need an additional source.
