    Okučani was captured and incorporated into the Serbian Autonomous Oblast of Western Slavonia early in the Croatian War for Independence. After being annexed by the unrecognized Republic of Serbian Krajina, Okučani and the rest of the pocket were liberated by Croatian Forces after Operation Flash on May 1, 1995.
