Submission declined on 6 August 2024 by DoubleGrazing (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of events). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter. Please see the guide to writing better articles for information on how to better format your submission.

Comment: If this event has some special significance in the overall context of the war, then that isn't made clear in this sub-stub. And if it doesn't have such significance, and is merely another in a long series of skirmishes, then it probably isn't notable enough to justify an article. In any case, it's not clear why it would require a separate article, as opposed to being added to one of the existing ones. DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:59, 6 August 2024 (UTC)
