When Sennacherib was besieging Jerusalem in the days of King Hezekiah, it looked really bad. Assyria had conquered all of the northern kingdom of Israel, and all of Judah except for Jerusalem.
Sennacherib conveniently omitted the fact that he failed to actually take Jerusalem. The site of that siege has been identified by archaeologist Stephen Compton using modern mapping techniques.
