Plagues of Egypt

"The Plagues of Egypt (מכות מצרים‎), in the story of the book of Exodus, are ten disasters inflicted on Egypt by the God of Israel in order to force the Pharaoh to allow the Israelites to depart from slavery; they serve as "signs and marvels" given by God to answer Pharaoh´s taunt that he does not know Yahweh: "The Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD".:117

Scholars broadly agree that the Exodus is not a historical account. Attempts to find natural explanations for the plagues have been dismissed by biblical scholars on the grounds that their pattern, timing, rapid succession, and above all, control by Moses mark them as supernatural." - (en.wikipedia.org 13.04.2021)
