On this day, 75 years ago, Kyiv was liberated from the Nazi invaders.
The liberation happened as a result of the Kyiv offensive operation, which lasted from November 3 to November 13, 1943, and was part of the Battle of the Dnieper, one of the largest and bloodiest military operations in the world history. It involved up to four million people on both sides, and more than two million people were killed.
