Operation Mouette was an operation in 1953 by the armies of the French Union (France and State of Vietnam) in Northern Vietnam during the First Indochina War. It was launched on October 15 in an attempt to locate and destroy communist Việt Minh major troops operating under the command of Võ Nguyên Giáp around the area of Phu Nho Quan, south of the Red River Delta. Following the establishment of a French camp in the area, various troops were dispatched to engage the Viet-Minh forces. The operation was ended and the French Union withdrew by November 7, claiming approximately 1,000 enemy combatants killed, twice as many wounded, and 181 captured as well as a substantial quantity of weapons and ammunition.
