Week 232 - Leningrad: NO STEP BACK! - February 4, 1944

The Allies begin a new operation in the Pacific this week: assaulting the Marshall Islands. They also make big attacks from their beachhead in Italy at Anzio, but these are called off after only a few days in the face of heavy enemy resistance. However, in the USSR theres several successes against the Axis, as they are pushed back both in the far north and the far south of the front, and still surrounded near Korsun.
