Pertempuran Hamel (4 Juli 1918) adalah serangan yang sukses oleh infanteri Angkatan Darat Australia dan Angkatan Darat Amerika Serikat, didukung oleh tank-tank Britania, terhadap posisi-posisi Jerman di dan sekitar kota Le Hamel, di Prancis bagian utara, pada masa Perang Dunia I. Serangan ini direncanakan dan dikomandoi oleh Letnan Jenderal John Monash, komandan Korps Australia dan Pasukan Imperial Australia.

Banyak taktik yang digunakan, seperti penggunaan serangan gabungan, menggambarkan evolusi taktik militer, dari serangan massal yang digunakan sebelumnya dalam perang. Semua sasaran Sekutu tercapai dalam 93 menit, hanya tiga menit lebih lama daripada waktu pertempuran terhitung Monash.
