Škabrijel

Škabrijel (Italian: Monte San Gabriele) is a 646-metre (2,119 ft) hill above the town of Nova Gorica in Slovenia.

[2] During the battle, the top of Škabrijel Hill was lost and recaptured nine times by the Austro-Hungarians.

One officer described the fighting, stating: "Around 6 o'clock in the morning, the Italians attacked for the first time, and then it went all day.

But we always repulsed them with hand grenades, machine guns tried to take the trenches.

Due to artillery bombardment by the Italian Army during the First World War, the hill—now densely wooded—was left almost entirely bare.
