The Battle of Maiwand in 1880 was one of the principal battles of the Second Anglo-Afghan War. Under the leadership of Malalai Anaa, the legendary woman of Afghanistan, the Afghan followers of Ayub Khan defeated the British Army in one of the rare nineteenth-century victories of an Asian force over a Western power, though at a high price: between 2,050 and 2,750 Afghan warriors were killed and probably about 1,500 wounded, while killing 969 British and Indian soldiers and wounding 177 more.

  • Slaget om Maiwand i 1880 var et av de viktigste slagene i den andre anglo-afghanske krig. Slaget endte i nederlag for den britiske hæren og seier for de afghanske tilhengerne av Ayub Khan. Den afghanske seieren i Maiwand kom med en stor bismak, siden mellom 2 050 og 2 750 afghanske krigere ble drept og trolig rundt 1 500 skadet. På den annen side ble ca. 969 britiske/indiske soldater drept og 177 såret. Det er imidlertid ett av få tilfeller i det 19. århundre der en asiatisk militærmakt klarte å beseire en vestlig en.
