ZB 37 actually. There is a ZB 26/30 (most likely 30) in another photo in the same post.

British helmets are visible at the captured equipment.
I agree, British helmets but there are 3 types of rifle shown

None are British

M1903/14 Greek Mannlicher-Schonauer
M88/95 Austrian Mannlicher straight pull
M95/31 Austrian Mannlicher straight pull
