The Romans besieged Jerusalem. The siege was long. The Romans tried to negotiate surrender, but the Zealots prevented the people of Jerusalem from surrendering. When the city was taken, the Romans destroyed it and the Temple. A large number of people were killed and 97,000 were enslaved and taken to Rome.
The Romans then took Masada, the last stronghold of resistance by the Sicarii in a fortification on top of a table mountain. The Sicarii burnt the place and committed mass suicide when the Romans were about to take Masada.
