- Title:
- File 395/1908 Pt 2 'Persian Gulf: Katif; Disturbances in 1908'
- Scope & Content:
-
Part 2 consists of correspondence and memoranda relating to disturbances at Katif [Al-Qaṭīf] and the surrounding area. The correspondence is between the Government of India, Foreign Office, Admiralty, and India Office. Further correspondence, included as enclosures, is from the Political Resident in the Persian Gulf, Political Agent at Bahrain, British Consul at Basrah, and British Ambassador at Constantinople.
The papers cover the discussion over the British response to an outbreak of violence between some of the Bedouin tribes and the townspeople of Katif following a disagreement over date crops. The disturbance extended to acts of piracy along the Gulf coast. The correspondence addresses the question of what the Turkish response will be, whether they need assistance, and what naval assistance the British can offer. Included are naval reports from the three vessels in the vicinity: HMS Lapwing, HMS Sphinx, and HMS Redbreast.
