The invasion led to the destruction of libraries and the loss of countless manuscripts, significantly impacting the intellectual and cultural landscape of the city. Scholars were often killed, enslaved, or forced to flee, resulting in a significant decline in Timbuktu's status as a center of learning and scholarship in the region.
