Siege of Adrianople (1913) between the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria during the Second Balkan War and resulted in the Ottoman Empire recapturing Edirne.[1][page needed][2][page needed]

History

The Ottoman army under the command of Enver Pasha entered Edirne on 22 July 1913. Edirne, Kırklareli and Dimetoka were taken back. In the Second Balkan War, the Bulgarians could not show much resistance as they were attacked from every region. and Edirne came under Turkish rule again. The Ottoman Empire won its last victory in the Balkans and did not lose a great deal of territory in Thrace until the First World War. Against the capture of the city by the Ottoman forces on July 21, the re-inclusion of Edirne in the Ottoman lands became official only with the Treaty of Constantinople (1913) signed with the Kingdom of Bulgaria on September 29, 1913.[3][full citation needed]
