The Eastern Slavonia Front was the only region of the Serbian Krajina which was under Serb Control even after the Operation Storm which had re-took almost all Serb controlled territories in Croatia. The region was eventually peacefully reintergrated back under full Croatian control after the signing of the Erdut agreement.
