Turmoil in Turkish Ports Drives Christians into Flight
Fragmented dispatches report widespread violence in Smyrna and surrounding ports. Turkish populace aided by janissaries killed leaders, looted magazines, and expelled or enslaved Christians and Armenians while striking churches and wealth, with Jews acting as guides amid rumors of a larger empire upheaval. The Vienna fragment cites mass displacement and the Russian envoy Strogonoff observing from Rajahiders as Odessa evacuees flee.
