The Battle of the Marshes was a part of the Iran–Iraq War. After the unsuccessful Operation Dawn V, Iran opened a new offensive in the lakes of the Hawizah Marshes in Iraqi Tigris-Euphrates river system. After heavy losses at the beginning due to human wave attacks, 15,000 casualties and little progress, Iran for the first time used a regular army unit: The 92nd Armored Division.

  • The Battle of the Marshes was a part of the Iran–Iraq War. After the unsuccessful Operation Dawn V, Iran opened a new offensive in the lakes of the Hawizah Marshes in Iraqi Tigris-Euphrates river system. After heavy losses at the beginning due to human wave attacks, 15,000 casualties and little progress, Iran for the first time used a regular army unit: The 92nd Armored Division. Although the badly trained and poorly equipped Iranians suffered heavy losses against the Iraqi artillery, tanks, air strikes and gunboats, Iran eventually managed to invade the Majnoun Islands with Operation Kheibar.

  • Operasjon Kheibar som den tredje og største offensiven i februar 1984 under Irak-Iran-krigen var et strategisk fremstøt mot Hawizeh-sumpene som var store sumpområder der de to store floder Eufrat og Tigris møttes i sørlige Irak. Iranerne hadde avskåret forbindelsen mellom Bagdad og Basra langs Tigris med Operasjon Val-Fajr 5 og Operasjon Val-Fajr 6 offensivene, nå vil man helt skilte Basra fra resten av Irak gjennom en erobring av de viktige strategiske Majnun øyene nord og dels nordvest for Basra. Irakerne som realiserte alvoret med denne offensiven som vil kuttet Irak i to, gikk til voldsomme motangrep med deres ildkraft som påførte iranerne meget stor tap. Iranerne hadde tatt de viktige Majnun øyene, men hadde lidd for stor tap for videre strategiske erobringer.
