TheOttomanGrand Vizier Muhsinzade Mehmed decided to storm theHirsovo fortressoccupied byRussian troops ofAlexander Suvorov to facilitate the seizure ofGiurgiu. Having pushed back the Russianoutposts, the Turks came close to the Hirsovofortifications; the Russians opened fire from the fortress and the Turks moved back; then they headed for thesconce.
