AI nations should prioritise defending their own provinces from an invader instead of invading coalition war targets

It may simply be that in my game there was some other exception which caused this bizarre AI behaviour. I'll give it briefly.
-AI Mazandaran declares coalition war against me (Qara Qoyunlu)
-Mamluks joins as a junior member of the coalition against me
-Mamluks siege several provinces of mine
-Ottomans declare war on Mamluks and begin sieging their border provinces
-Mamluk forces remain on the offensive in Qara Qoyunlu rather than heading home to defend
-Several months pass, Ottomans have reached Cairo, Mamluks are still focusing on sieging Tabriz, and defending their occupied provinces in my land
-Looking at the ledger, it seems that 75-100% of Mamluk soldiers at any given time are invading Qara rather than defending Syria + Egypt

tl;dr: AI Mamluks prioritised offense against a coalition target (me) such that it ignored another nation invading and sieging all their land

Over all this was to my chagrin since it lead to my defeat,
but I don't think this AI behaviour is intentional, since it lead to the AI letting it's land be occupied unopposed
