Operation Tiger (Croatian: Operacija Tigar) was a Croatian Army (HV) offensive conducted in areas of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina near Dubrovnik between 1 and 13 July 1992. It was designed to push the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) away from the city towards Popovo field and secure a supply route via Rijeka Dubrovačka, which was gained in early June as the siege of Dubrovnik by the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) was lifted. The operation's success was facilitated by the establishment of the HV's Southern Front command and the successful conclusion of the May–June 1992 operations against the VRS in the Neretva River valley, which concluded with Operation Jackal.

  • Operation Tiger (Croatian: Operacija Tigar) was a Croatian Army (HV) offensive conducted in areas of Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina near Dubrovnik between 1 and 13 July 1992. It was designed to push the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) away from the city towards Popovo field and secure a supply route via Rijeka Dubrovačka, which was gained in early June as the siege of Dubrovnik by the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) was lifted. The operation's success was facilitated by the establishment of the HV's Southern Front command and the successful conclusion of the May–June 1992 operations against the VRS in the Neretva River valley, which concluded with Operation Jackal. Although Operation Tiger captured only 40 square kilometres (15 square miles) of territory, it secured the Ploče–Dubrovnik road and placed the HV in a position to capture the rest of southern Dalmatia over the following three-and-a-half months. That was achieved through a negotiated JNA withdrawal from Konavle followed by an HV amphibious operation in the area of Cavtat— capturing Konavle before the VRS could move in and reach the Adriatic Sea coast. Two additional HV offensives aimed at securing the Dubrovnik area defenses —Operation Liberated Land and an assault on the Vlaštica Peak— stabilized the HV hold on the area and threatened VRS-held Trebinje in the eastern Herzegovina. As a result of the JNA pullback, the Prevlaka peninsula was demilitarized and placed under United Nations control until 1996. (en)
  • A Operação Tigre foi uma ofensiva do Exército Croata (HV) conduzida em áreas da Croácia e Bósnia e Herzegovina perto de Dubrovnik entre 1 e 13 de julho de 1992. Foi projetada para empurrar o Exército da Republika Srpska (VRS) para longe do cidade em direção ao campo de Popovo e garantir uma rota de abastecimento via Rijeka Dubrovačka, que foi conquistada no início de junho quando o cerco de Dubrovnik pelo Exército Popular Iugoslavo (JNA) foi levantado. O sucesso da operação foi facilitado pelo estabelecimento do comando da Frente Sul do HV e a conclusão bem-sucedida das operações de maio a junho de 1992 contra o VRS no vale do rio Neretva, que terminou com a . Embora a Operação Tigre tenha capturado apenas 40 km² de território, ela garantiu a cidade de Ploče — a estrada de Dubrovnik colocou o exército croata em posição de capturar o resto do sul da Dalmácia nos três meses e meio seguintes. Isso foi alcançado por meio de uma retirada negociada do JNA de Konavle, seguida por uma operação anfíbia do exército croata na área de Cavtat —, capturando Konavle antes que o VRS pudesse se mover e alcançar a costa do mar Adriático. Duas ofensivas adicionais dos croatas com o objetivo de proteger as defesas da área de Dubrovnik — Operação Terra Liberada e um ataque ao Pico Vlaštica — estabilizaram o domínio croata na área, ameaçando a cidade de Trebinje, controlado por VRS na Herzegovina oriental. Como resultado da retirada do JNA, a península de Prevlaka foi desmilitarizada e colocada sob controle da Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU) até 1996. (pt)
