Recorded sources

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the Mongol army killed the Abbasid Caliph in Baghdad?

Yes. Two reference sources state directly that the Mongol army under Hulegu sacked Baghdad in 1258 and killed the caliph al-Musta'sim. Other sources confirm the Mongol sack ended the Abbasid Caliphate but do not themselves mention the caliph's death.
