The main source 'Notes on the history of Berbera' that this article relies on does not discuss of such event nor the killing of Abd al-Rahman Bey(check page 9). It is primarily based on WP:OR. No uprising took place, only an 'growing unrest'. Replayerr (talk) 13:22, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

:Officer hunter who was sent to Berbera by the British government shares his concern on berbera because “the habar awal somalis have murdered the governor of Berbera after he killed a Somali in an attempt to rob his caravan”.

:i’m trying to find hunter’s report but believe abdurahman was killed and it is obvious.

:the somalis of berbera also are happy to see some english travellers who they think is here to rid the region of “the unwanted turks and egyptians” Samyatilius (talk) 15:13, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

::The source you mention did not explicitly discuss the killing of Abd al-Rahman Bey. I have the correspondence between British here and they simply state that it was there was a revenge killing of an Egyptian sergeant, not the Bey who was serving as governor at the time. Refer to page 8.[https://www.google.co.uk/books/edition/Further_Correspondence_Respecting_the_Af/PybMmu4JYUYC?hl=en&gbpv=1&bsq=hunter%20berbera%20murdered] Replayerr (talk) 16:42, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

::If the Berbera Uprising was a "victory" as you portray it in the article. Why would they need British assistance in getting rid of them? Replayerr (talk) 16:43, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
