Solila, Borja
Solila is a relatively small forest-free area on top of The Borja mountain near Teslić, in Republic of Srpska, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Its altitude is abt 870 m. It is located on the old route of the regional road Teslić-Banja Luka.

The text on the monument is in Bosnian (Latin script) and roughly translates as:
On this spot a dozen of fighters of the 1st battalion of the 5th Kozara Brigade gave their lives heroically defending unprotected civilians who were withdrawing pushed by the bestialities of the occupation forces. Glory to these fallen soldiers.
