The Battle of Kusonje was a two-day clash fought in the village of Kusonje near the town of Pakrac on 8–9 September 1991, during the Croatian War of Independence. The battle was initiated when a platoon of the Croatian National Guard (Croatian: Zbor narodne garde – ZNG) was ambushed by Croatian Serb forces while conducting a reconnaissance patrol. The ZNG deployed reinforcements to extract the ambushed platoon, but failed to reach them. The surviving members of the platoon held out until they ran out of ammunition and surrendered only to be killed by their captors and buried in a mass grave.

  • La batalla de Kusonje fue un enfrentamiento de dos días que se libró en el pueblo de Kusonje, cerca de la ciudad de Pakrac, el 8 y 9 de septiembre de 1991, durante la Guerra de Independencia croata. La batalla se inició cuando un pelotón de la Guardia Nacional Croata (en croata: Zbor narodne garde - ZNG) fue emboscado por las fuerzas serbias croatas mientras realizaban una patrulla de reconocimiento. La ZNG desplegó refuerzos para poder sacar de su situación al pelotón emboscado, pero no consiguió su objetivo. Los miembros sobrevivientes del pelotón resistieron hasta que se quedaron sin municiones y se rindieron sólo para ser asesinados por sus captores y enterrados en una fosa común. (es)
