[1] From March to April 1994, ARBiH forces attempted to capture the city, but only managed to move 2 km closer to it.

[2] After the signing of the Washington Agreement in March 1994 which ended the Croat-Bosniak War, the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina (ARBiH) transferred significant forces that had been fighting on the front lines against the 111th Croatian Defence Council (HVO) brigade from Žepče to the Serbian front line towards Teslić.

[3] With the signing of the Muslim-Croat peace, the Serbian side realized that the town of Teslić was in danger, because it was only 7 km from the front line, and the 1st Krajina Corps of the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) strengthened its defense on the western front line towards the city.

By March 26, Muslim forces surrounded the Husar hill (577 m.) and sporadic fighting continued until April, but the ARBiH failed to get closer than 5 km.

On May 22, the ARBiH resumed its offensive, this time their former advisary the 110th HVO brigade, sent two tanks to participate in the attack.
