I am nominating this article for deletion as it is quite possibly a hoax. For the sake of Wikipedia's integrity, I think this article should be deleted. If you search this in Google, everything points back to this article at most. Also, JSTOR has nothing. The sources may mention Kamaran in passing but do not actually discuss any expedition.

Support Indeed the article is a complete hoax. Not only was there never any Ottoman expedition against the Portuguese in Kamaran, but the island of Kamaran was never occupied by the Portuguese for them to be expelled from it in the first place, let alone "completely destroyed".
