Operation Vukovar '95
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Operation Vukovar '95, more known as the Vukovar dove (in Croatian: Vukovarska golubica)[2][5] was a planned military-police operation of the Croatian National Guard in early November 1995 and in mid 1996.[5] The operation was intended to militarily liberate the last remaining occupied part of Croatia after Operation Storm, including the region of Eastern Slavonia.[5] The operation was abandoned due to intervention of UN peacekeepers and the signing of the Erdut Agreement.
