Operation Barbarossa was the code name for Nazi Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union during World War II. Launched on June 22, 1941, it aimed to seize Soviet territories, destroy the Red Army, and eradicate communism. This ambitious military campaign involved a massive force of German troops, supported by Axis allies, spreading across a vast front from the Baltic Sea to the Black Sea. The operation initially caught the Soviets off guard, resulting in significant territorial gains for the Germans. However, the invasion ultimately proved unsuccessful due to a combination of factors, including the harsh Russian winter, resilient Soviet resistance, and strategic mistakes by the German High Command. Operation Barbarossa marked a turning point in the war, as it strained German resources and diverted crucial troops from other fronts, ultimately contributing to the downfall of the Nazi regime.
