Significance
The Battle of Międzyrzec Podlaski, fought in the area of the villages of Manie, Rogoźnica, and Międzyrzec Podlaski in Congress Poland, was a Polish victory during the final phase of the November Uprising. Ramorino's insurgent force of 20,000 defeated a Russian force of 15,000 under von Rosen. Coming in late August 1831, as the uprising was approaching its collapse, the engagement represented one of the few successful large-scale actions the Polish National Government was able to mount against Russian forces in this period.
