The siege of Kerman (1794) was the capture of the city of Kerman by the Qajar forces led by Agha Mohammad Khan Qajar against Zand forces led by Lotf Ali Khan (the last Khan of the Zand dynasty) which resulted in a decisive Qajar victory. After the siege, tens of thousands of its inhabitants were killed, blinded or taken into slavery; it took the city decades to recover.
