[2] At the beginning of the offensive on Teruel on 15 December 1937, it was placed in reserve,[3] but it was soon attached to the XVIII Army Corps and entered combat.
[6] Shortly afterwards, it was transferred to the rear, and after the Battle of Alfambra, it became part of the XXI Army Corps in the Vivel del Río sector.
[8] When the rebels began their offensive through the Ebro valley in March 1938, the division was forced to retreat along with the rest of the XXI Army Corps towards the sector.
This last attack took place on 18 May, which was not only repulsed but also provoked a strong counterattack under a weather of wind, rain and hail that caused heavy casualties and the end of the offensive in said sector.

When it tried to progress on day 6, it encountered strong resistance in Mano de Hierro and El Médico that it could not overcome, thus preventing the widening of the rupture zone.
