AFFECTED AREAS: İzmir, Manisa

Manisa, 28 June (11 July) 1914

The Valı of Smyrna came here yesterday and assured the Church Warden that he is touring the area in order to issue explicit orders in person so that the commercial blockade stops immediately. But there is still no safety. Last night, two Rum shepherds were killed close to Manisa by people unknown.
