April 1807 CE

The remaining mutineers fire on Valletta on April 10, though they caused no injury.

Villettes now orders that the fort be stormed.

A party of forty men under Lieutenant de Clermont, who is himself part of the Froberg Regiment, scales the fort and takes control of it, taking no losses in the process.

The fort falls but six rebels retreat into the gunpowder magazine, threatening to blow it up.
