April 1st April 4th

Battle of the Karbala Gap

The gorge between the Euphrates River and Lake Al-Milkh in central Iraq is a key road to Baghdad, which is why elite Iraqi Republican Guard Forces held the line there against international coalition forces in 2003. However, they achieved very little: for one damaged American tank, hundreds of destroyed Iraqi equipment occurred. The Medina division was destroyed, and on April 3rd American troops occupied the Baghdad airport.

April 5th April 8th

Battle of Knigsberg

From April 6th to April 9th 1945, the fortress city of Knigsberg, the main stronghold of Germany in East Prussia, was stormed.

As a result of the operation, the main Wehrmacht forces in East Prussia were defeated.

Operation Weserbung

Operation Weserbung is the name of the German military operation to occupy Denmark and invade Norway, which began on April 9th 1940.

Graz-Amstetten Operation

The final operation of the Red Army in Austria began on April 15th 1945 and continued until the end of the war.

However, individual pockets of resistance continued to fight even after the official end of hostilities.

Capture of Hamburg

On April 18th 1945, British forces began attacking Hamburg, a key port in Northern Germany.

The surrender of the city was soon followed by the end of World War II in Europe.

Operation Vulcan

On April 22nd 1943, the Allies launched Operation Vulcan, the penultimate attempt to encircle Axis forces in Tunisia and force their surrender.

Cambodian invasion

After coming to power in Cambodia, pro-American General Lon Nol demanded that the North Vietnamese Army leave the country. In response, the Viet Cong launched a full-scale offensive, which Lon Nols forces could not contain on their own. The Americans came to the rescue on April 29th 1970, but the North Vietnamese command knew about the operation in advance and evacuated most of the soldiers further to the west, losing only camps and equipment.
