The English Wikipedia article places the city in the story of the French campaign in Egypt: after the French army landed west of Alexandria on 2 July 1798 and marched on Cairo through Damanhur, it occupied Rosetta on 6 July and reached Rahmaniyah, a village on the Nile, while the Mamluks under Murad Bey prepared to meet it; the two armies fought near Shubra Khit on 13 July 1798.
