1 mayo 1905 año - Shoubak revolt

Descripción:

The Shoubak revolt was an uprising against Ottoman authority in the Transjordanian town of Shoubak in 1905. The uprising started after the Ottoman forces started to put women of the town into forced labor, considered to be a deliberate act of punishment against the inhabitants of Shoubak who were frequently insubordinate.[1] Shoubak rose in revolt and managed to rally the neighboring Bedouins with them; the perpetuators were brutally punished by military force through an Ottoman expedition sent from Al-Karak, just north of Shoubak.
