You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''siege of Kamieniec Podolski''' (((lang-pl|Oblężenie Kamieńca Podolskiego)); ((lang-tr|Kamaniçe kuşatması))<ref name="diyanet">((Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5djXAAAAMAAJ&q=kamenetz|title=Türkiye Diyanet Vakfı İslâm ansiklopedisi: Cilt 33|year=2007|isbn=9789753894272))</ref>) was laid by the [[Ottoman Empire]] on August 18, 1672, in the Polish fortress of [[Kamieniec Podolski]] (now: Kamianets-Podilskyi, [[Ukraine]]). It lasted until August 27, when Polish forces defending the city capitulated. During the siege, legendary Polish hero, [[stolnik]] [[Przemyśl|przemyski]] [[pułkownik]] [[Jerzy Wołodyjowski]] led many successful sallies with light cavalry.

Kamieniec Podolski, known as the "key to [[Podolia]]", had heavy, but obsolete fortifications, and a garrison of about 1500 soldiers ([[Crown of the Kingdom of Poland|Poles]] and [[Grand Duchy of Lithuania|Lithuanians]]). The Ottoman army was under command of [[Köprülü Fazıl Ahmed]] Pasha<ref name="diyanet"/> and numbered 150 thousand soldiers with reinforcements from the army of Tatars, Moldavians, Wallachians and Cossacks. Polish forces were commanded by [[Starosta]] of Podole, Mikolaj Potocki, and consisted of several units, such as infantry regiment of Bishop of [[Kraków]] Andrzej Trzebicki, two regiments of Captains Wasowicz and Bukar, permanent garrison of Major Kwasiborski, and other smaller units under Jan Mokrzycki, Jerzy Wolodyjowski, [[Rotmeister]] Myliszewski, [[Chorazy]] Wojciech Humecki, [[Stolnik]] Stanislaw Makowiecki, and [[Czesnik]] Jozef Wasilkowski. Polish forces of some 1,500 were inadequate to successfully defend such a large fortress.

First [[Crimean Tatars|Crimean Tatar]] units appeared near Kamieniec Podolski on August 12, and two days later, main Ottoman army camped by the town. After building seven large [[Sconce (fortification)|sconces]], Turkish artillery began a barrage with its 120 modern cannons. It paralyzed Polish defence, and on August 20, the Turks managed to score a direct hit in one of the towers of the Old Castle, which served as an ammunition depot. The tower blew up in a large explosion, which was followed by a Turkish attack on Kamieniec. Poles managed to defend the fortress, but with very heavy losses. After the attack, Mikolaj Potocki decided to abandon the New Castle, under which Turkish miners dug deep tunnels, placing explosives in them. The Old Castle with its medieval walls was not prepared for a modern siege, and Potocki’s decision placed the defenders in a very difficult position. On August 25 the Turks dug a tunnel under one of the towers, and managed to destroy it. Another attack followed, again repelled by the Poles.

On August 26, 1672, Potocki decided to capitulate and on August 30, Polish forces left Kamieniec. The Pasha entered the city three days later. Turkish occupiers remained in Kamieniec for 27 years, until 1699. In 1692, to stop a possible Turkish attack, [[Hetman]] [[Stanislaw Jan Jablonowski]] built the stronghold of [[Okopy, Ternopil Oblast|Okopy Swietej Trojcy]] some ((convert|20|km|mi)) from Kamieniec.

On October 17, 1672, Poland signed the [[Treaty of Buczacz]], wherein Poland and Lithuania agreed to pay a yearly tribute of 22,000 [[ducats]] to the Turks. However, these arrangements were not accepted by the Polish parliament. A new army was assembled, at the head of which Hetman Jan Sobieski crushed the Turks at Chocim in November 1673. The war lasted until 1676. Kamieniec returned to Poland in 1699, following the [[Treaty of Karlowitz]].
