📅 27 November 1538 📍 Jemen

Returning from the failed siege of Portuguese-held Diu, Hadım Süleyman Pasha’s fleet stopped at Shihr on the Hadramawt coast. The ruler of Shihr accepted Ottoman authority during the return campaign. The agreement enlarged Ottoman claims along the coast through a mix of military pressure and local negotiation; it does not show control over Hadramawt’s interior or all Yemen.
