Battle of Batina or Batina operation ((クロアチア語:Bitka kod Batine)) is one of the battles of the Second World War which took place from 11 to 29 November 1944 at the Croatian village of Batina in Baranja, on the right bank of the Danube River between the units of the Red Army and the People's Liberation Army and the Wehrmacht and its allies. According to some estimates the Battle of Batina is the biggest battle by the amount of power of the participants, the intensity of fighting and the strategic importance during the World War II in Yugoslavia.〔http://www.scribd.com/doc/50893747/Rusi-i-drugisvetski-rat-u-Jugoslaviji〕 ==Context== After the liberation of Belgrade and Vojvodina by the 57th Army under the command of General Šarohina, and 51st Vojvodina Division under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Sreten Savić, these two divisions broke out to the left bank of the Danube river and took over its defense from Baja to Bačka Palanka. In order to facilitate further operations of Red Army to Vienna and Budapest, 51st Partisan division for the Liberation of Baranja outbreak on the left bank of the Drava river. These units had task to take over bridges and provide transfer of other units across Danube. In headquarters of the 57th Army in Srbobran, Army general in the Yugoslav National Liberation Army Kosta Nađ and Commander of Soviet units Marshal Fyodor Tolbukhin agreed that the point for crossing Danube will be village Batina. For another, auxiliary place, they selected area west of Apatin. Commanders thought that due to the extremely unfavorable and inaccessible terrain near Batina (wide and poured rivers, wetlands, almost perpendicular Banska kosa that rises to a well defined coast), the enemy won't expect an attack on this part of the coast. At the time, Baltina was a place of demarcation of two German high command: Oberkommando der Wehrmacht (Army Group "Southeast") and the Supreme Command of the Nazi Army (Army Group "South"). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Battle of Batina」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
