After the attack the Ustaše pulled back to Velebit with no casualties. Despite the small scale of the uprising, the Yugoslav authorities were unnerved because the power of the Ustaše was unknown. As a result, major security measures were introduced. This action had an impact in the foreign media, especially among the Italian and Hungarian press. In November 1932 in the text published in the official gazette of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia, party leader Milan Gorkić criticised leaders of communists from Dalmatia because they did not join Ustaše during the Velebit uprising.
