From Warlike
Q113407997
The Siege of Ura-Tyube was part of an unapproved Russian military operation during the Russian conquest of Bukhara and Russo-Kokand War. The operation was led by Military Governor Dmitry Romanovsky and aimed to capture several settlements on the Russo-Bukharan border including Ura-Tyube. Ura-Tyube had declared independence from the Emirate of Bukhara several months before the siege, and sent horsemen to harass Romanovsky's forces, stationed in Khujand after its capture. In response, Romanovsky led a detachment to Ura-Tyube with plans of capturing it. The Russian assault on the fort was extremely successful, in part due to unexpectedly effective artillery breaches.
