The siege of Dushanbe took place in February 1922 during the Basmachi rebellion, an anti-Soviet uprising in Central Asia. The town of Dushanbe was captured by Basmachi forces under the command of Enver Pasha, a former Ottoman military leader who had aligned himself with the Basmachi rebels. The Soviet garrison was overwhelmed after a brief siege, and the Basmachi forces gained control of the town, marking a significant moment in the rebellion.
