| - Второе сражение при Чарасиабе (англ. Second Battle of Charasiab) — одно из сражений второй фазы Второй англо-афганской войны, которое произошло 25 апреля 1880 года около Кабула. Британское командование направило полковника Дженкинса к селению Чарасиаб для помощи колонне генерала Стюарта, которая должна была идти в Кабул из Кандагара. Вечером 24 апреля отряд Дженкинса встретил большие силы афганской армии и запросил подкреплений. На помощь ему отправился генерал Макферсон. Утром 25 апреля афганцы окружили Дженкинса, но плотный огонь пехоты держал их на расстоянии. Днём подошла бригада Макферсона, атаковала противника и обратила его в бегство. (ru)

| - The Second Battle of Charasiab was fought on 25 April 1880 between the British Empire and Afghan tribesmen, during the Second Anglo-Afghan War. Charasiab is a small town 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) south of Kabul. In April 1880 a 1,200 strong force under Colonel Jenkins, including a half-battalion of the 92nd Highlanders, was sent from Kabul to Charasiab, to protect a supply column sent there to meet Lieutenant-General Stewart's division travelling from Kandahar to Kabul. On the evening of the 24 April, Jenkins saw that his Charasiab position was about to be attacked by a large force of Logar tribesmen. In response, an additional force under Brigadier-General Macpherson was sent from Kabul, consisting of six guns, a troop of the 3rd Punjab Cavalry and 962 Infantry, while Brigadier-General Hugh Gough, with four guns and a cavalry brigade, took up a position half-way between Kabul and Charasiab. On the morning of the 25 April, Colonel Jenkins' force was surrounded by attacking tribesmen – around 4,000 by British estimates – kept at bay by steady fire. At 1:00 p.m. Macpherson’s force arrived and immediately attacked the Afghans who were routed, and then pursued by the cavalry and horse artillery for four miles. The battle was over by 4:00 p.m. (en)
