Barbary and Iberian Dispatches Reach The Gazette
Reports from Lisbon and Barbary note King Muley Abd al-Has defeated in a major battle and preparing to march with his army toward the sea. Infante Duke letters to Imperial authorities provoke rebuke, while Spanish forces consolidate at Porto Longone. Cadiz and Seville detail Vera Cruz returns, trade restrictions, and convoy plans as Barbary regencies brace for possible conflict. The Corsican and Italian ports send word of mobilization and regional orange alerts.
