The liberation of Belgrade in 1944 was a significant milestone in World War II in the Balkans. It occurred on October 20, 1944, when Soviet Red Army forces, supported by the Yugoslav Partisan Army led by Marshal Tito, successfully drove out Nazi occupation forces from the Yugoslav capital.
This liberation was a decisive moment in the struggle against Nazi occupation in the Balkans. It ended German control over the region and contributed to the Allied war effort. The liberation of Belgrade also marked the beginning of the end of Nazi presence in the Balkans, paving the way for the total liberation of Yugoslavia and the eventual defeat of Nazi Germany.
