Battle of Skoczów
The Battle of Skoczów took place in late January 1919, during the Polish–Czechoslovak War. Czechoslovak units were halted only under pressure from the Entente.

The battle was stopped by the Czechoslovak Minister of Defense near the town of Skoczów, Poland and a ceasefire was signed.
