Look at this topic in my forum. There are a lot of photos.
If you can help complement the theme with new material - I'll be happy.
To read Russian texts use the Google translator. There are interesting memoir of the Armenian and Russian participants of the events.

Armenians

Anyone any idea what colour uniforms these fine fellows wore?

All limitations are self imposed.  Work hard and dream big.

The India Office library has some intriguing references to photos by Teague-Jones of MallMiss, further east, but I am not sure if they have been published anywhere. They show dispositions of both Dushak and Kaakha skirmishes...
