Operation Hurricane-91 (Croatian: Operacija Orkan-91) was a military offensive undertaken by the Croatian Army (Hrvatska vojska – HV) against the Yugoslav People's Army (Jugoslovenska Narodna Armija – JNA) and SAO Western Slavonia Territorial Defense Forces in the Sava River valley, in the region of Western Slavonia during the Croatian War of Independence. The operation began on 29 October 1991 and ended on 3 January 1992 when a nationwide ceasefire was signed to implement the Vance plan. The offensive was aimed at recapturing the region, in conjunction with two other HV offensives launched against SAO Western Slavonia in the north of the region within days.

dbo:abstract
  • La Operación Orkan-91 (en croata: Huracán-91) fue una ofensiva general de la Guardia Nacional Croata (ZNG) (renombrada el 4 de noviembre de 1991 como Ejército Croata - HV) llevada a cabo en la región de Posavina de Eslavonia Occidental entre el 29 de octubre de 1991 y el 3 de enero de 1992 contra las tropas yugoslavas que mantenían el dominio en el lugar. Los sectores bajo control del Ejército Popular Yugoslavo (JNA) con apoyo de milicias serbocroatas que fueron escenario de la operación, se ubicaban en las antiguas municipalidades de Kutina, Novska y Nova Gradiška. Orkan-91 se enmarcó en otras dos operaciones ofensivas exitosas del ZNG en Eslavonia Occidental:​ * Operación Otkos-10 (31 de octubre - 6 de noviembre de 1991). Ocupación croata de las alturas Bilogora, unos 370 km². * Operación Papuk-91 (28 de noviembre - 25 de diciembre de 1991). Ocupación de Papuk, unos 1230 km². El resultado fue un éxito parcial croata (675 km² que abarcaban a 21 asentamientos) ya que gran parte del terreno disputado se mantuvo bajo poder del JNA. El objetivo croata de liberar la región no fue llevado a cabo por Orkan-91 sino por la Operación Bljesak recién en mayo de 1995. Las milicias serbias y el JNA quedaron bajo dominio de un amplio sector (unos 575 km²).​ (es)
  • Operation Hurricane-91 (Croatian: Operacija Orkan-91) was a military offensive undertaken by the Croatian Army (Hrvatska vojska – HV) against the Yugoslav People's Army (Jugoslovenska Narodna Armija – JNA) and SAO Western Slavonia Territorial Defense Forces in the Sava River valley, in the region of Western Slavonia during the Croatian War of Independence. The operation began on 29 October 1991 and ended on 3 January 1992 when a nationwide ceasefire was signed to implement the Vance plan. The offensive was aimed at recapturing the region, in conjunction with two other HV offensives launched against SAO Western Slavonia in the north of the region within days. Even though the offensive captured a portion of the targeted area, including the town of Lipik as the first of the larger settlements captured by the HV during the war, the mission objectives were not met before the ceasefire took effect. SAO Western Slavonia retained control of the town of Okučani and its surroundings, including a short section of the Zagreb–Slavonski Brod motorway. The halting of Operation Hurricane-91 due to the ceasefire of 3 January 1992 led to opposing assessments on the possible outcomes of the offensive had there been no ceasefire. Assessments range from claims that the JNA was on the brink of defeat in the area, to estimates that the HV was too exhausted and its ammunition stocks too low to permit a successful conclusion of the offensive. The three HV offensives launched in Western Slavonia in late 1991 led to the displacement of approximately 20,000 Croatian Serb refugees who were later settled in the JNA-held Baranja region in eastern Croatia.
