Aydoslu Mehmed Pasha, also called Aidos Mehmed Pasha, was an 18th century Ottoman statesman and military officer.[1]

Aydoslyu Mehmed Pasha is best known for serving as the chief commander of the Izmail garrison during the Siege of Izmail in 1790 during the Russo-Turkish War of 1787–1792. He was captured by the Russians after the battle.

He later returned to Ottoman service, and in 1791 was appointed Beylerbey of the Rumelia Eyalet.[2]
