17 June 1918: Italian victory over the Solomon and the Solarolo

Stop battle on the Grappa with the Italian victory over Asolone and Solarolo. Svetozar Borojević von Bojna, commander of the Isonzo front and head of one of the two Austro-Hungarian army groups, considered the attack a suicidal endeavor: this attitude of indecision negatively influenced his choices and indirectly contributed to the Austro-Hungarian defeat.

The absence of unitary command due to the division of the two corps favored the defeat of the Imperial Army.
