🇭🇷Operacija Bljesak - vojno-redarstvena akcija Hrvatske vojske i specijalne policije RH. Započela je 1. svibnja 1995., kada su hrvatske vojne i redarstvene snage munjevitom akcijom oslobodile okupirana područja zapadne Slavonije. Za samo 31 sat oslobođeno je oko 500 četvornih kilometara teritorija koje je zaposjeo velikosrpski agresor i uspostavljen je nadzor nad autocestom A3. Akcija Bljesak bila je u vojnom smislu nastavak uspješne vojne operacije Otkos 10 iz prosinca 1991. kada je oslobođen veći dio zapadne Slavonije. Potpuno oslobađanje zapadne Slavonije u zimu 1991. spriječilo je potpisivanje Sarajevskog primirja i dolazak mirovnih snaga UN-a.

U skladu sa strategijom odmazde osmišljenom u Beogradu, kao odgovor na operaciju Bljesak RSK i SVK izveli su terorističke napade na civilne ciljeve u hrvatskim gradovima. Građani Zagreba napadnuti su raketama s kazetnim punjenjem, a građani Karlovca i Siska topničkim granatama.

🇬🇧Operation Flash (Croatian: Operacija Bljesak) was a brief Croatian Army (HV) offensive conducted against the forces of the self-declared proto-state Republic of Serbian Krajina (RSK) from 1–3 May 1995. The offensive occurred in the later stages of the Croatian War of Independence and was the first major confrontation after ceasefire and economic cooperation agreements were signed between Croatia and the RSK in 1994. The last organised RSK resistance formally ceased on 3 May, with the majority of troops surrendering the next day near Pakrac, although mop-up operations continued for another two weeks.

Operation Flash was a strategic victory for Croatia resulting in the capture of a 558-square-kilometre (215 sq mi) salient held by RSK forces centred in and around the town of Okučani. The town, which sat astride the Zagreb–Belgrade motorway and railroad, had presented Croatia with significant transport problems between the nation's capital Zagreb and the eastern region of Slavonia as well as between non-contiguous territories held by the RSK. The area was a part of United Nations Confidence Restoration Operation (UNCRO) Sector West under the United Nations Security Council peacekeeping mandate in Croatia. The attacking force consisted of 7,200 HV troops, supported by the Croatian special police, arrayed against approximately 3,500 RSK soldiers. In response to the operation, the RSK military bombarded Zagreb and other civilian centres, causing seven fatalities and injuries to 205.

Forty-two HV soldiers and Croatian policemen were killed in the attack and 162 wounded. RSK casualties are disputed—Croatian authorities cited the deaths of 188 Serb soldiers and civilians with an estimated 1,000–1,200 wounded. Serbian sources, on the other hand, claimed that 283 Serb civilians were killed, contrary to the 83 reported by the Croatian Helsinki Committee. It is estimated that out of 14,000 Serbs living in the region, two-thirds fled immediately with more following in subsequent weeks. By the end of June, it is estimated that only 1,500 Serbs remained. Subsequently, the personal representative of the Secretary-General of the United Nations Yasushi Akashi criticised Croatia for "mass violations" of human rights, but his statements were refuted by the Human Rights Watch and to some extent by the United Nations Commission on Human Rights rapporteur Tadeusz Mazowiecki.
