The Invasion of Île Bonaparte was an amphibious operation in 1810 that formed an important part of the British campaign to blockade and capture the French Indian Ocean territories of Île Bonaparte (now Réunion) and Isle de France (now Mauritius) during the Napoleonic Wars. These islands formed a fortified base for a French frigate squadron under Commodore Jacques Hamelin to raid British convoys of East Indiamen travelling between Britain and British India. Hamelin's ships had destroyed two convoys the previous year despite the attention of a squadron of Royal Navy ships under Commodore Josias Rowley. Rowley had responded by raiding the fortified anchorage of Saint Paul on Île Bonaparte and capturing one of Hamelin's frigates and two captured East Indiamen.

  • La invasión de la Isla Bonaparte​ fue una operación anfibia llevada a cabo por Reino Unido entre el 7 y el 9 de julio de 1810, en el marco de los esfuerzos británicos por bloquear y capturar los territorios franceses en el océano Índico durante las guerras napoléonicas. Desde sitios como la Isla Bonaparte y la Isla de Francia, un escuadrón de fragatas francesas, comandado por el comodoro Jacques Hamelin, emprendía acciones contra el comercio británico. En 1809, para enfrentar esta situación, buques británicos —liderados por el comodoro Josias Rowley— atacaron Saint-Paul y capturaron una de las fragatas de Hamelin, además de que el comandante francés, Nicolas Des Bruslys, se suicidó luego del ataque.

  • La prise de l'île Bonaparte est une opération amphibie permettant la capture de l'île Bonaparte, aujourd'hui la Réunion, par une force d'invasion britannique dans le cadre d'une campagne militaire visant à s'emparer des territoires français dans l'océan Indien. Préparée lors de l'attaque de Saint-Paul quelques mois plus tôt, l'opération, qui a lieu le 7 juillet 1810, précède de quelques semaines la capture de l'île de France voisine (actuelle île Maurice) et l'établissement d'une mainmise durable des Britanniques sur la route des Indes.
