Plans of the Austrian military operation to capture Bihać, showing the situation on 7 September 1878 and depicting the deployments of units of the Austro-Hungarian and rebel armies. The engagements near Bihać are counted among the most demanding of those that took place during the Austro-Hungarian occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and also those with the highest human losses. Austrian General Zach issued the order to begin the assault on Bihać on 6 September, planning to take not only Bihać and Ključ, but also western Bosnia. After several weeks of hard fighting, Austro-Hungarian forces under General Zach and Major General Rheinländer entered Bihać on 19 September.
