HVO forces captured the village of Here from the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The operation, carried out by the Rama Brigade, secured a tactical advantage by seizing high ground that allowed the HVO to halt the offensive of the opposing forces in that sector. These territorial changes altered the balance of power on the Rama–Uskoplje front, stabilizing the HVO defensive positions during the final stages of the conflict between the HVO and the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
According to historian Davor Marijan in his study published by the Croatian Institute of History, this engagement served as a prelude to the diplomatic processes that led to the Washington Agreement, which eventually ended the Croat–Bosniak War.[1]
