The Battle of Wawa Dam (Filipino: Labanan sa Dam ng Wawa) also known as the Seizure of Wawa Dam (Filipino: Pag-agaw sa Dam ng Wawa), was the side action during the Battle of Manila, yet the longest continuous combat during the Liberation of the Philippines, to secure the vital water sources east of the capital from February 20 – May 31, 1945, and was the critical battle that neutralized the Japanese Shimbu Group which controlled the Sierra Madre mountain range east of Manila and Southern Luzon.[6][2]
