The Battle of Jisr Benat Yakub was fought on 27 September 1918 at the beginning of the pursuit by the Desert Mounted Corps of the retreating remnants of the Yildirim Army Group towards Damascus during the Sinai and Palestine Campaign of World War I. After the Battle of Samakh and the Capture of Tiberias, which completed the Egyptian Expeditionary Force's decisive victory in the Battle of Sharon section of the Battle of Megiddo, the Australian Mounted Division attacked and captured a series of rearguard positions. The positions were held by German and Ottoman soldiers of the Tiberias Group at Daughters of Jacob Bridge, an important bridge across the Jordan River, and at fords at El Min and north towards Lake Huleh. Remnants of the Ottoman Seventh and Eighth Armies were retreating in columns towards Damascus from the Judean Hills via Samakh, the bridge at Jisr Benat Yakub, Kuneitra, and Kaukab, pursued by the Australian Mounted and the 5th Cavalry Divisions. At the same time remnants of the Ottoman Fourth Army were retreating in columns towards Damascus along the Pilgrims' Road (the old hajj road following the even older route of the King's Highway) through Deraa, pursued by the 4th Cavalry Division. The surviving garrisons from Samakh and Tiberias formed from remnants of the Seventh and Eighth Armies entrenched themselves on the eastern side of the Jordan River to cover the retreat of the main remnants of the Yildirim Army Group. These rearguards were successfully attacked by the Australian Mounted Division during the day, capturing a number of survivors who had not succeeded in withdrawing, to occupy the eastern bank of the Jordan River. The Australian Mounted Division, followed by the 5th Cavalry Division continued their advance towards Damascus later in the day.

A Batalha de Jisr Benat Yakub foi travada em 27 de setembro de 1918, no início da perseguição em direção da Damasco pelo Corpo Montado do Deserto do que restava do Grupo de Exércitos Yıldırım otomano-alemão, na fase final da Campanha do Sinai e Palestina da Primeira Guerra Mundial. Após a vitória na Batalha de Samakh e a captura de Tiberíades, que completaram a vitória decisiva da Força Expedicionária Egípcia na Batalha de Megido, a Divisão Montada Australiana atacou e capturou uma série de posições de retaguarda. Essas posições eram defendidas por soldados otomanos e alemães do Grupo de Tiberíades na Ponte das Filhas de Jacó, uma importante ponte do rio Jordão, nos vaus de El Min e outros pontos a norte, em direção ao lago Hula. O que restava do Sétimo e Oitavo exércitos otomanos estavam em retirada em colunas em direção a Damasco, desde os montes da Judeia através de Samakh, da ponte em Jisr Benat Yakub, Quneitra e Kaukab, perseguidos pela Divisão Montada Australiana e pela 5.ª Divisão de Cavalaria indiana. Ao mesmo tempo, o que restava do Quarto Exército otomano retirava em colunas para Damasco ao longo da antiga Estrada dos Peregrinos, via Daraa, perseguida pela 4.ª Divisão de Cavalaria indiana. As tropas sobreviventes das guarnições de Tiberíades e de Samakh entrincheiraram-se no lado oriental do rio Jordão para cobrirem a retirada das principais tropas sobreviventes do Grupo de Exércitos Yıldırım. Estas retaguardas foram atacadas com êxito pela Divisão Montada Australian durante o dia, ocupando a margem oriental do rio e capturando numerosos sobreviventes que não conseguiram retirar. No mesmo dia, a cavalaria australiana continuou o seu avanço para Damasco, seguida pela cavalaria indiana.
