Alizai rebellion of 1923

The Alizai rebellion of 1923[5] was a rebellion by the Alizai tribe in the region of Zamindawar, in modern-day Helmand Province of the Emirate of Afghanistan, which took place in 1923.

[6] The causes laid in opposition to the reforms of Amanullah Khan,[6] namely in regards to conscription and taxation.

[1] The rebellion lasted 6 months, largely because none of the conscripted battalions in the south were willing to fight the Alizai.

[6] Ultimately, the rebellion was defeated with troops from Herat, who executed rebel leaders and deported groups of Zamindawaris to Afghan Turkestan.
