The Battle of Khasdour took place in the Eleşkirt Valley, where the Armenian fighters from Transcaucasia engaged with the Turkish army units. Armenians defended themselves well, eventually making a path between the Turkish forces to escape.
In the Ahlat region, for several years, the mountains were controlled by Serop Aghbyur, until 1899 when together with 12 of his men, died in a fight with 1,500 Turkish soldiers.
