Mohammed el-Mokrani died during combat near Oued Soufflat as French forces pursued suppression of the revolt. His death did not immediately end the uprising; his brother Boumezrag and other insurgents continued resistance. French accounts that present the event as the removal of a single “rebel chief” obscure the broad social mobilisation and the political grievances behind the revolt.
