Nuri Killigil

Ottoman general, the half-brother of the Minister of War Enver Pasha. He organised Special Organization operations in Libya, then commanded the Army of Islam in the Caucasus and entered Baku in 1918, becoming known as its conqueror. After the war he founded a weapons factory at Istanbul and was killed by its explosion in 1949; he was buried at the Edirnekapı Martyrs' Cemetery.
