The Defence of Przebraże (Polish: Obrona Przebraża, Ukrainian: Оборона Пшебража; 4 July — 15 October 1943) was fought between the Ukrainian Insurgent Army against the Polish Self–Defense, Home Army and Soviet partisans in the Łuck County of the Wołyń Voivodeship. The Northern Operational Group under the command of Dmytro Klyachkivsky and 3rd Operational Group "Turiv" under the command of Yuriy Stelmaschuk tried four times to destroy and conquer the largest Polish Self–Defense base and center in the Volhynia, but the UPA didn't succeed.
