Fighting occurred in the Kalesija and Kamenica area near Tuzla in northeastern Bosnia and Herzegovina between the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) and the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (ARBiH) during the period 29 July – 30 October 1992 during the Bosnian War. Attempts by the ARBiH to capture and hold the Zvornik–Šekovići road were unsuccessful, as were their attempts to link the Cerska-Kamenica enclave to other ARBiH-held territory. The VRS achieved a minor success in reducing the size of the enclave. The enclave was linked to ARBiH-held territory at the end of 1992.
