“The German 369th Reconnaissance Battalion, Usta\u0161e 1st Battalion of the 9th Regiment, and one battalion of the Domobran 2nd Regiment from Ostro\u017eac, \u010celebi\u0107, and Konjic launched a concentric attack towards the Idbar Valley and the Ljubina Ridge, while the 1st Battalion of the 370th Grenadier Regiment attacked Zlatar. The 1st Battalion of the 370th Grenadier Regiment, through a flanking maneuver from Smiholje, easily pushed back parts of the 11th Brigade from Zlatar, and then from \u0110edinovac. The command of the 369th Division deemed the concentric attack near \u010celebi\u0107 unsuccessful and blamed the “unreliability of the Croats” for it. Namely, the 369th Reconnaissance Battalion pushed back the 1st and 3rd Battalions of the 13th Brigade to Javornik and Bunari, but during the night and the following day, these units, with losses (30 dead), pushed them back to Ostro\u017eac. The brigade had 7 fighters killed and 8 wounded in the battle. However, there is no information that the Domobran and Usta\u0161e battalions achieved any results in the attack.” Among the fallen was Slavko Trifkovi\u0107 from Ra\u0161tani near Mostar.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n According to the records of M.
