Шаблон:Infobox military conflict Шаблон:Campaignbox Moroccan-Portuguese conflicts The Battle of Silves took place in June 1182 between the Almohad fleet and a Portuguese fleet off the coast of Silves. The Almohad fleet inflicted a severe defeat on the Portuguese.

Background

Faced with the relentless attacks from the Almohad fleet led by Gamin ben Mardanis against Portugal, the inhabitants of Lisbon decide to assemble a powerful fleet, commanded by Admiral Fuas Roupinho. The Portuguese ships quickly ravaged the shores of Algarve, which were then under Almohad's control.[1]

Indeed, in 1180, the Almohad fleet from Seville, consisting of more than 10 galleys under the command of Gamin ben Mardanis, launched an attack on Lisbon.[2] The Portuguese hastily armed all available vessels in the port and engaged the Almohad squadron, marking their first naval battle in history.[3] The Battle of Cape Espichel turns in favor of the Portuguese.[2][4] They captured several vessels and took the commander, Gamin ben Mardanis, as a prisoner.[5][6] Encouraged by this triumph, Portuguese admiral Fuas Roupinho ventures to lead a successful raid on Ceuta, taking many Muslim ships in the harbor.[5]

Battle

In June 1182, the Portuguese fleet, emboldened by its previous successes, sails in the ocean off the Almohad territories.[7] The Almohad fleets from Ceuta and Seville, totaling 40 galleys and commanded by Abd Allâh ben Ishâq ben Jâmi and Ahmed es-Sekili, respectively, converge in Cadiz. From there, they set course towards Silves, intercepting the Lisbon Portuguese fleet stationed there.[1] The naval battle tilts in favor of the Almohads, inflicting a severe defeat on the Portuguese, resulting in the loss of over 20 to 30 ships and 1,800 prisoners.[1][8]
