The Battle of Akhaltsikhe during the Russo-Turkish War, 1828–1829, may refer to one of the following. Firstly, an offensive battle under the walls of Akhaltsikhe on August 21 (August 9 O.S.), 1828, between 9,000 Russians under Field-Marshal Paskevich on the offensive and 30,000 Turks under Kios-Mahomet-Pasha.
