The Treskavica Front was a crucial zone for the Siege of Sarajevo during the Bosnian War. In mid-July 1995, the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) started a series of offensives on the Treskavica mountain range, causing heavy fighting. The Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (ARBiH) initially had success in pushing back Bosnian Serb troops at various times, but it always resulted in counter-offensives by the Army of Republika Srpska.
As the war came to a close, VRS forces repelled the last attack by the ARBiH and killed their Commander Zaim Imamović, thus achieving success in protecting the mountain.
