On 27 October 1917, the 1st Isonzo Army launched a successful offensive between Fajti hrib (Monte
Faiti) and Škabrijel (Monte San Gabriele) towards Gorizia. Threatened by encirclement and destruction,
the 3rd Italian Army had to withdraw the next day. The Austrian-Hungarian-German Army continued its
offensive until 16 November 1917, stopping only at the Piave River, where they were halted by Italian
forces with Allied reinforcements. Peace was finally restored to the Isonzo and Karst regions after 888
days of warfare.
