Battle Results

The result is disputed, with some sources claiming Serbian victory,[1] and some sources claiming Ottoman Victory. [2][3]

The results of the battle of Šumatovac (near Aleksinac, on August 23rd 1876) were not disputed - it was the only Serbian victory in the entire war. The Ottoman victory on September 1st 1876 was the battle of Adrovac, also near Aleksinac. DrMako (talk) 16:19, 24 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
