Mihail Ceaur-Aslan was one of the generals of the Romanian Army in the First World War.

He served as commander of the 3rd Army between 14/27 August - 25 August / 7 September 1916, when his command was lifted due to the defective way in which he led military actions that resulted in the serious defeat at the Battle of Turtucaia.[3]
