Can a Behind Enemy Lines unit still battle after it enters a forest, town or other hex that forbids battle?

Several players agree; the card wording separates movement from battle restrictions.

No. The card waives terrain movement restrictions but not battle restrictions, so a unit that ends its move in a forest or town cannot battle that turn. It can still pass through a forest and score medals on the way. The unit can instead battle first from a normal hex and then move on.
