The scene was arranged near the modest town of Birkot in Kunar, providing a fitting backdrop for a significant face-off.
As the morning of May 23, 1919 arrived, the resounding war cries of the Chitralis echoed through the Afghan mountains, heralding the onset of a fierce battle. A tumultuous clash ensued, marked by a deluge of gunfire, swords clashing, and cannonballs thundering.
At precisely 2 pm, the battle concluded with the Afghan forces in retreat. The Chitrali troops swiftly began the task of seizing all abandoned possessions of the opposing side. The Afghan cannons left behind now stand as proud exhibits in Chitral fort, accessible for visitors to admire.
