The Second Battle of Wahles was an Aglrinian offensive against the Wahlsh military on the island of Wahles, in the South Versutian Sea, in March and April 2014. It was led by Aglrnian forces against the Wahlsh occupying force. The Wahli insurgency, led by Yasul Bashir, fought against Wahland alongside the Aglrinian Invaders. The Wahlsh military called it "The worst, most violent fighting seen in modern Wahlsh history".
This was the Second major battle on Wahles. In early March, 2014, Wahlsh forces invaded, fighting the First Battle of Wahles in order to capture or kill insurgent elements considered responsible for the deaths of hundreds of civilians, including the current Wahlsh appointed governor, and her administration. The battle was the first major conventional conflict involving Wahland since the founding of the nation.
