Battle of Radviliškis

1919 · 20th century · Part of the Lithuanian Wars of Independence

The Battle of Radviliškis was fought in November 1919 around the railway town of Radviliškis in northern Lithuania, where Lithuanian forces defeated the West Russian Volunteer Army of Pavel Bermondt-Avalov. The victory, on 21–22 November, forced the Bermontians to withdraw from Lithuania under Allied supervision by mid-December. It was the decisive engagement of Lithuania's brief war against the Bermontians.
