The first Polish units to reach the area, that is the Wołyńska Cavalry Bde and the 30th Infantry Division were ordered to secure the area in order to allow for the remaining units to join up with the core of the army. However, due to chaotic command during the first days of the war, all divisions were dispersed and most regiments acted separately.
The initial Polish troops, including the Wołyńska Cavalry Bde and the 30th Infantry Division, arrived at the location to secure the area so that other units could join up with the main army force. However, due to confusion in command during the early days of the war, all divisions were scattered, and most regiments operated independently.
