The Agadir Incident broke out on July 1, 1911, when the German gunboat SMS Panther invaded the Moroccan port of Agadir with trade protection, establishing French control of Morocco and settling the dispute General Hubert Lyautey was assigned as Governor General on April 28, 1912. The rebellion of the Moroccan natives was not stopped. The rebellion of the Moroccan natives was fierce. General Lyautey mercilessly arrested and shot the rebellious Moroccan natives. The bodies of the shot Moroccan natives littered the prison. Moroccan natives were gunned down by French troops in the Moroccan capital of Fez.
Hubert Lyotay became the first French Consul General in Morocco from April 28, 1912 to August 25, 1925; in 1912 Lyotay was again posted to Morocco to rescue the capital, Fez, which was under siege by some 20,000 Moroccans. When the Treaty of Fez established Morocco as a protectorate, Lyotey served as Consul General of French Morocco from April 28, 1912 to August 25, 1925.
Sultan Abdel Hafid signed the Treaty of Fez on March 30, 1912. This made Morocco a protectorate and lost its sovereignty to France. Shortly after the inhabitants of Fez learned of the treaty, the Fes Riots broke out in the Moroccan capital of Fez on April 17, 1912. 1,500 French troops and 5,000 Moroccan askers (colonial infantry) commanded by French officers were left behind in Fez. Six hundred Moroccan Muslims, 66 Europeans, and 42 Moroccan Jews were killed.
The French conquest of Morocco began when the French Republic occupied the city of Oujda on March 29, 1907. France began operations against the Moroccan sultanate, culminating in the signing of the Treaty of Fes on March 30, 1912, which established a French protectorate in Morocco. France then signed the Treaty of Madrid with the Kingdom of Spain on November 27, 1912, establishing a Spanish protectorate in Morocco. France conducted a series of military operations to quell the Moroccan uprising until 1934.
