OttomanPersian War (1775
Ottoman Empire and the Zand dynasty of Persia. The Persians, ruled by
Karim Khan and led by his brother Sadeq Khan Zand,[2] invaded 1776)
southern Iraq[3] and after besieging Basra for a year, took the city from Part of the OttomanPersian Wars
the Ottomans in 1776.[4] The Ottomans, unable to send troops, were
dependent on the Mamluk governors to defend that region.

In an attempt to raise troops and provisions for this war, Ottoman Sultan
Abdlhamid I, made Suleiman al-Jalili mubayaaci (official of
provisions), ordering him to send provisions to Baghdad, which he
ignored, instead he restricted merchants from selling their goods.[5] As
a result, the Persians held Basra until 1779 when the Ottomans, under
Sulayman Agha,[6] retook the city, following Karim Khan's death.[7]
