[2][3][4][5][6] In July 1616, Sahaidachny, together with 6,000 Cossacks on 120–150 Chaikas, set off on a sea voyage.

At the exit from the Dnieper, in the Dnieper–Bug estuary, the Cossacks met a squadron of Ottoman galleys.

Having climbed over the wall, the Cossacks cut out the sentries and opened the gates.

In order to accept more prisoners into their gulls, the Cossacks threw away most of the captured goods, thereby confirming their vow to free Christians from captivity, which they made before their campaigns.

[10][11][12][13] In foreign, and especially Turkish literature, the campaign is depicted without details, but the fact of the raid on Kaffa under the leadership of Sahaidachny is still there.
