Gazette De France 12th of November 1825 Ιbrahim Pasha, accompanied by a small cavalry unit, arrived at Nafplio to survey the terrain. From there, he marched toward Mystras, then returned to Navarino; after consolidating all his forces, he advanced toward Tripolitsa. The naval blockade of Messolonghi was broken following the departure of the Kapudan Pasha, though the city remains besieged by land. A large portion of Western Greece, including Amfissa, remains in Greek hands. A fire broke out in Smyrna, and the Pasha assisted the victims by offering them shelter in nearby villages and in the vacant houses of Greeks.
