The Schevkal campaign (1604–1605) was military campaign of the Russian army against the Shamkhalate. These were the first Russian forces to come close to Dagestan since 1594. Russian captured Tarki, but kumyks and their ally, under the command of Sultan Mahmud, routed the Russian army in Karaman battle.[4] The Russian commander Ivan Buturlin was killed in the battle, along with 7000 Russian soldiers.
