Балли Комбетар
Despite the Luboten Battalion being formed by the Italian forces, The Germans did not disband the battalion. Instead, the Luboten Battalion was incorporated into the Balli Kombëtar, strengthening its forces. The troops under Dëralla successfully repelled the Yugoslav partisans in Tetovo. Tetovo had the largest Balli Kombëtar base in Macedonia and was the centre of the Ballist movement in the region.
