The battle took place from 11 to 29 November 1944 near the village of Batina in Baranja, on the right bank of the Danube River. According to some estimates, the Battle of Batina was the biggest battle by the number of participants, the intensity of fighting, and the strategic importance that occurred during the World War II in Yugoslavia.[2]
