Explanation

The Hun invasions, particularly under Toramana and Mihirakula in the late 5th and early 6th centuries AD, significantly weakened the Gupta Empire. The Huns destroyed cities, disrupted trade, and broke the centralized authority of the Guptas. This invasion was a major factor in the empire's decline and eventual fall.
