Stalingrad, a Soviet city and industrial centre on the river Volga, was bombed heavily by the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Stalingrad in World War II. German land forces comprising the 6th Army had advanced to the suburbs of Stalingrad by August 1942. The city was firebombed with 1,000 tons of high explosives and incendiaries in 1,600 sorties on 23 August. The destruction was monumental and complete, turning Stalingrad into a sea of fire and killing thousands of civilians and soldiers. Further fire-attacks were mounted against the ruined city for the next two days, enveloping it in dense volcano-like black smoke clouds that stretched 3.5 kilometers into the sky.

  • Stalingrad, a Soviet city and industrial centre on the river Volga, was bombed heavily by the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Stalingrad in World War II. German land forces comprising the 6th Army had advanced to the suburbs of Stalingrad by August 1942. The city was firebombed with 1,000 tons of high explosives and incendiaries in 1,600 sorties on 23 August. The destruction was monumental and complete, turning Stalingrad into a sea of fire and killing thousands of civilians and soldiers. Further fire-attacks were mounted against the ruined city for the next two days, enveloping it in dense volcano-like black smoke clouds that stretched 3.5 kilometers into the sky. In accordance with Adolf Hitler's demand to exterminate all traces of Soviet resistance, Soviet forces hiding in the rubble were subjected to nonstop German airstrikes until the Soviet counteroffensive in late November 1942. Luftflotte 4 flew 1,000 sorties per day on average from 23 August to 22 November, the bulk of which were directed at Stalingrad. (en)
  • O bombardeio de Stalingrado, cidade soviética nas margens do rio Volga, sofreu um bombardeamento aéreo maciço alemão durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial, que matou 200 mil militares soviéticos .A cidade possuía uma indústria bélica estratégica, no início, o Exército Vermelho sofreu escassez de armamentos e munições, chegando a ter uma proporção de meia arma de fogo para cada soldado . A maior parte da população civil fora evacuada do local e a comunidade restante fora treinada como guerrilheira na batalha de Stalingrado. Segundo o Oberkommando der Wehrmacht os nazistas já não poderiam reverter a derrota a partir de 1941. Depois desta ofensiva, 90% dos nazis foram mortos pelo governo soviético. (pt)
