📅 2 Juni 1525 📍 Jemen

On 10 Sha’ban 931 AH, converted by TDV İslâm Ansiklopedisi as 2 June 1525, Selman Reis submitted a report to Grand Vizier Ibrahim Pasha. It discussed the India sea route, coastal security, Portuguese-held forts, and Yemen’s strategic ports. The document shows how Ottoman-Mamluk naval planning treated Yemen as a corridor and military resource; it does not establish that local communities consented to imperial control.
