 At 2 : 00 a.m. on 30 July , the Pashtuns launched another attack , during which Costello , and the Pashtun Mullah , were both wounded ; the British also recorded one fatality among the sepoy contingent . That evening a further attack was repulsed by a bayonet charge of the 45th Sikhs . The following morning , on 31 July , the remainder of the 38th Dogras and 35th Sikhs entered Malakand South under the command of Colonel Reid , bringing with them 243 mules carrying 291 @,@ 600 rounds of ammunition . But with their attention now drawn towards the nearby British outpost of Chakdara , attacks by the Pashtuns on Malakand South began to reduce until they ceased altogether . Churchill records a total of three British officers killed in action and 10 wounded , seven sepoy officers wounded , and 153 non @-@ commissioned officers killed and wounded during the siege of Malakand South .
