The '''Battle of Khwar Pass''' ({{Langx|fa|نبرد سردر خوار}}) was a failed ambush set up by [[Ashraf Hotaki]] during his retreat in the aftermath of his defeat at the [[Battle of Damghan (1729)]]. Gathering what forces lay on his route, Ashraf pulled together another formidable fighting force around the remains of his badly bloodied force, even having enough men to spare for an ambush set up at a narrow pass east of [[Varamin]].
