The operation Buna was HVO's code name operation and response to the ARBiH attempt to split and weaken the enclave of Vitez and Busovača. ARBiH got less than a kilometer to divide Vitez and Busovača into 2 regions. The HVO began operation Buna driving them back and securing the area from a potential fall.[1][2]
