The Battle of Zavrtaljka (Croatian: Bitka za Zavrtaljku) was a 6-day-long battle fought between the Croatian Defence Council and Croatian Army against the ARBiH during the Croat–Bosniak War. 11 soldiers of the HVO were killed.

Battle

In the period from January 31 to February 5, the HVO launched the Zavrtaljka campaign, with the aim of occupying the dominant elevations in the Kiseljak municipality.

By occupying Zavrtaljka, a hill about 3 km (1.9 mi) southwest of Bilalovac, on the Busovača-Kiseljak road, from which there is a view of the part of the front line in the Lašvanska valley south of Busovača, the HVO made it difficult for the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina to advance and in that direction relieved the pressure on the HVO forces in Lašvanska dolina.

Aftermath

On February 15, after several days of heavy fighting, units of the Knights Brigade of the HVO captured the Knights settlement of Buhine Kuće, which had been lost a month earlier, and thereby brought the Vitez-Busovača road back under control. The memorial to those who died is in Brestovsko, near Zavrtaljka.
