The Prague Uprising (1945) – The Last Uprising during World War II

The Prague Uprising was a major event that occurred towards the end of World War II in the city of Prague, Czechoslovakia. Then occupied by Germany and known as the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. It was a last-ditch effort by the Czech resistance to take control of the city before the Soviet Red Army arrived and liberated it from Nazi occupation. The uprising began on May 5th, 1945, when the Czech resistance launched coordinated attacks on German occupying forces throughout the city. Over the next few days, the resistance fought fiercely against the Germans, with the support of some Soviet troops who had entered the city. Also men of the pro-Axis Russin Liberation Army (ROA) took part in the battle. However, the situation quickly became complicated. The Germans responded to the uprising with brutal force, and fierce street battles raged throughout the city. The Czech resistance was also divided, with different factions vying for control and sometimes turning on each other. Despite these challenges, the uprising continued to gain momentum, and by May 8th, the resistance controlled much of the city center. However, the Germans were still heavily armed and fiercely determined to maintain control. In the end, the Prague Uprising was largely unsuccessful. The Germans ultimately regained control of the city, and the Red Army did not arrive until the following day. The fighting continued until May 11th, when the Germans finally surrendered to the Soviets. The Prague Uprising was a significant event in the history of Czechoslovakia, and it is often seen as a symbol of resistance against Nazi oppression. However, it also came at a high cost, with thousands of Czechs killed and much of the city destroyed in the fighting.
