Aug 04 - Serbs mark OpStorm, the Aug. '95 large-scale military operation carried out by Croatia, in conjunction with the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, to recapture areas of central Croatia's enclaves designated as United Nations Protected Areas. During the first day of the attack, that was launched by the Croatian army, UN forces withdrew and after only four days of fighting with the Croatian Serb Army it ended in a decisive victory for the Croatian army.
It has been called an act of ethnic cleansing by the defeated Serbs since the operation led to the displacement of approximately 200 000 Croatian Serbs.
