Krasnaya Gorka Operation (Estonian: Krasnaja Gorka operatsioon), also Battle of Krasnaya Gorka (Krasnaya Gorka lahing), was an offensive between Estonian-allied troops and Soviet troops in Ingria, Northwestern Russia from 13 October to 9 November 1919.
The purpose of the offensive was to control parts of Northwestern Russia with the Northwestern Army and destroy the Bolshevik Baltic Fleet. The offensive was led by Johan Pitka, who was the Commander of the Estonian Navy. Estonian troops and artillery were unable to successfully attack the Russian fortifications and Krasnaya Gorka Fort. The offensive was ultimately unsuccessful.[1][2]
