The battle of Bitola took place near the town of Bitola, in Bulgarian territory, between a Bulgarian army under the command of the voivoda Ivats and a Byzantine army led by the strategos George Gonitsiates. It was one of the last open battles between the First Bulgarian Empire and the Byzantine Empire. The Bulgarians were victorious and the Byzantine Emperor Basil II had to retreat from the Bulgarian capital Ohrid, whose outer walls were by that time already breached by the Byzantines.

  • The battle of Bitola took place near the town of Bitola, in Bulgarian territory, between a Bulgarian army under the command of the voivoda Ivats and a Byzantine army led by the strategos George Gonitsiates. It was one of the last open battles between the First Bulgarian Empire and the Byzantine Empire. The Bulgarians were victorious and the Byzantine Emperor Basil II had to retreat from the Bulgarian capital Ohrid, whose outer walls were by that time already breached by the Byzantines. However, the Bulgarian victory only postponed the fall of Bulgaria to Byzantine rule in 1018.
  • La bataille de Bitola qui se déroula à proximité de la ville de Bitola en Bulgarie, opposa l'armée byzantine dirigée par le stratège George Gonitsiatès et l'armée bulgare dirigée par le voïvode Ivats. Ce fut l'une des dernières batailles entre le premier empire bulgare et l'empire Byzantin. La victoire bulgare obligea l'empereur Basile II à se retirer d'Ohrid, la capitale bulgare dont les remparts extérieurs avaient déjà été en partie détruits par les Byzantins. Cependant, la victoire bulgare ne sonne que comme un sursis pour l'empire Bulgare qui finit par être incorporée par l'empire Byzantin en 1018.
