@individual1.com: The Great Siege of Malta (1565) was a major battle where the Knights Hospitaller defended the island of Malta against the massive Ottoman Empire invasion. Despite being heavily outnumbered, the defenders held out for months of intense fighting until Spanish reinforcements arrived, forcing the Ottomans to retreat. It became one of history’s most famous examples of a small force resisting a powerful empire. #ottomanempire #malta #hospitaller #crusade #fyp
