Ahmed Urabi — English Wikipedia

English Wikipedia article on Ahmed Urabi; used for entity facts only. It records his rise from fellah officer to Minister of War in al-Barudi's nationalist ministry in 1882, the 'Urabi revolt, the bombardment of Alexandria and the Battle of Tell el-Kebir, his trial and exile to Ceylon (1882–1901), and his death in Cairo on 21 September 1911. Its infobox styles him Prime Minister of Egypt, a description the article itself hedges ('it was claimed') and the other sources do not sustain.
