The day the Germans retreated from Ioannina, the guerrillas were ready to enter and occupy Ioannina, the communists. But Zervas, because he knew this, was with his lads in Dourahani, when the Germans left, he took boats and came and occupied Ioannina, so the guerrillas could not occupy Ioannina and so Ioannina never fell to the communists.
