The operation was carried out by the 1 and 3/383rd Grenadierregiment reinforced by other units of Generalleutnant Emil Zellner’s 373rd Division (kroatische), and was fought in the area to the west of the line extending between Kostajnica and Bosanski Novi. The German forces surrounded a large area, but only minor skirmishes took place.
