The Battle of Uruzgan was fought in 1893 between Hazara rebel groups and the Afghan army of Emir Abdur Rahman Khan, which ended the 1888–1893 Hazara uprisings.[3] The last battle occurred in Daikundi Province of Afghanistan, which was historically part of the larger Uruzgan Province until 2004.
Aftermath
[edit]It is claimed that a massive forced displacement happened, especially in Uruzgan and Dey Chopan District of Ghazni Province. Out of 132,000 Hazara families,[citation needed] about 10,000 to 15,000 families fled to northern Afghanistan, Mashad in Iran and Quetta in Pakistan,[citation needed] and 7,000 to 10,000 submitted to Abdur Rahman Khan,[citation needed] and the rest fought until they were defeated.[4]
