Part of the Russian conquest of Bukhara

The siege of Samarkand, or siege of the Samarkand Citadel, was a military engagement fought in the city of Samarkand in June 1868. In the engagement, a small garrison of Russian Imperial soldiers was besieged by a combined army of Bukharan soldiers and their allies - including the Kokand Khanate and tributary Turkmen-Uzbek tribes.
