Pavel Yakovlevich Golovachev Pavel Golovachev was a Soviet pilot ace who fought throughout the Second World War and scored at least 30 aerial victories. He was awarded Hero of the Soviet Union twice. During the East Prussian Operation in December 1944, Golovachev ran out of ammunition after pursuing a German reconnaissance aircraft and opted to ram it. He destroyed the enemy’s tail with the propeller of his La-7 and was then able to pull out of spin and return to the airfield. For this, he received the Order of the Red Banner and later a second title of Hero of the Soviet Union. He scored ten more victories near Königsberg using this La-7, later switching it for the Yak-9. He ended the war in the skies over Berlin.

April 1st — April 4th Battle of the Karbala Gap By early April 2003, American forces invading Iraq had approached the Karbala Gap from the south, where the road to Baghdad ran. General Hamdani, who was guarding the gap, asked the General Staff for reinforcements. However, the commander of the Republican Guard, Qusay Hussein, succumbed to American disinformation. Convinced that the real attack would come from the north through Turkey, he withdrew a significant part of the forces under Hamdani’s command. The Iraqi counterattack in the gap completely failed, and Baghdad fell on April 9th.
April 5th — April 8th Battle of Königsberg The key moment of the East Prussian operation was the assault on Königsberg, which began on April 6th 1945. The USSR had a precise plan of the fortress, allowing them to accurately calculate all the details of the attack. On April 9th, General Otto Lasch, contrary to Hitler’s orders, announced his capitulation.
April 9th — April 12th Operation Weserübung On April 9th 1940, Germany invaded Denmark and Norway as part of Operation Weserübung. The Germans moved in and occupied Denmark and was captured within hours, but Norway put up a fight. The fighting on its territory lasted for two months until the royal family and government were evacuated to England in June.
April 13th — April 16th Grazko-Amshtettinskaya Offensive Operation On April 15th 1945, the USSR began a large-scale offensive operation on Austrian territory, with the goal to defeat the German Army Group South and meet American troops in the west of the country. The operation ended with the capitulation of Germany, although individual Wehrmacht units in Austria continued to resist even after peace was declared.
April 17th — April 20th Capture of Hamburg In the final month of World War II, defeated Wehrmacht forces fled from the west and east to the Jutland Peninsula. Hamburg, the last major city on the approach to the peninsula, was attacked by British troops, who initiated the capture of the city on April 18th 1945. After the death of Adolf Hitler on April 30th, negotiations began regarding the surrender of the city. On May 3rd, the Allies occupied Hamburg.
April 20th — April 23rd Operation Vulcan By the end of April 1943, Axis forces were surrounded in Tunisia, with their fate sealed. Despite this, they did not surrender. Advancing British infantry were surprised by well-hidden German paratroopers, and their unprotected advancing tanks were attacked by incendiary bombs and disabled by mines. Operation Vulcan, the penultimate operation in the North African theatre, had failed.
April 24th — April 27th Operation Toward Beit-ol-Moqaddas On April 24th 1982, Iran launched an operation to liberate the city of Khorramshahr, which Iraq had captured at the start of the war. With equal forces, the Iranians achieved a decisive victory, encircling and then defeating Iraqi forces in the city. The success of the operation allowed Iran to reach the border between the countries and subsequently transfer military operations to Iraqi territory.
April 27th — April 30th Cambodian Invasion On April 29th 1970, an operation by American and South Vietnamese forces began in Cambodia. Its goal was to support the Lon Nol government in the civil war against the Khmer Rouge and destroy North Vietnamese camps in the country. President Richard Nixon called the operation “the most successful military operation of the entire war”, but within five years both South Vietnam and the Lon Nol government in Cambodia had fallen.
