The British Forces eventually restored calm, however, in 1919 the Waziris took advantage of unrest in British India following the <a href="/wiki/Third_Anglo-Afghan_War" title="Third Anglo-Afghan War">Third Anglo-Afghan War</a> to launch more raids against British garrisons. It has been asserted that one of the reasons for these raids was that a rumour had been spread amongst the Wazirs and the Mahsuds, that Britain was going to give control of Waziristan to Afghanistan as part of the peace settlement following the Third Anglo-Afghan War. Buoyed by this prospect and sensing British weakness, the tribes were encouraged to launch a series of large scale raids in the administered areas. By November 1919, they had killed over 200 people and wounded a further 200.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Operations">Operations</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Waziristan_campaign_(1919%E2%80%931920)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Operations"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The first attempt to subdue them began in November 1919, when Major-General Sir <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Skeen" title="Andrew Skeen">Andrew Skeen</a> launched a series of operations against the Tochi Wazirs.<sup id="cite_ref-Barthorp158_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Barthorp158-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> These operations were largely successful and terms were agreed,<sup id="cite_ref-Ashcroft97_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Ashcroft97-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and in December Skeen turned his attention to the Mahsuds.

It was determined that a permanent garrison of regular troops would be maintained in the region to work much more closely with the militia units that were being reconstituted following the troubles that occurred during the 1919 war with Afghanistan.
