Two years after Grand Prince Dimitri of Moscow defeated Mongol Chief Mamai at Kulikovo, Mamai was in turn overthrown at the Kalka by his rival Toktamish, who then led a fresh Mongol offensive to crush the Russian rebellion. Toktamish captured Moscow after Dimitri fled. The city then suffered a terrible massacre and destruction as Mongol overlordship was reimposed.
