Operation Ratweek

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Military history notes two operations named Ratweek:

1. A coordinated series of attacks launched on 1 September 1944 by Yugoslav partisans and the Balkan Air Force against German forces retreating from the Soviets.

2. A proposed series of assassinations of German military leaders to be conducted in support of the invasion of Normandy. Never conducted for fear of German reprisals that came after only successful assassination of top nazi, Reinhard Heydrich in Prague during Operation Anthropoid.
