Vrbovski

Vrbovski, the sub-settlement of Padinska Skela, is located in the northern, Banat section of the municipality (Pančevački Rit), 33 kilometers north of downtown Belgrade.

The settlement was established after World War II as a part of the massive melioration in Pančevački Rit.

It was named after Viktor Verbovsky,[1] the commander of the company of Russian pilots which were fighting in the area at the time of liberating Belgrade from the Germans in the last stages of World War II, and all of them were killed by the Nazi forces.

The settlement is located next to the large cattle farming facility, and surrounded by the vast agricultural area.

It was already used to partially clean the Kalovita canal, to the south, in 2017, for water treatment in Sremska Mitrovica, Kovin and Bela Crkva, but also for extinguishing fires at Vinča landfill in 2017, and in North Macedonia (Gevgelija, Berovo).
