Siege on Malta in the 1050s
The siege of Medina was an unsuccessful Byzantine attack on the Muslim city of Medina, Malta in 1053 or 1054. The Muslim inhabitants of the city and their slaves managed to repel a superior Byzantine force, which retreated with heavy losses. After the siege, the slaves who helped the Muslims against the invaders were freed, and the Byzantines never attempted to retake the island.
