And the soviet troops on the border of Warsaw just waited for the Germans to crush the rebellion bevor they moved in.

One of the most mind-blowing facts about it, for me, was always that the Hungarian forces tasked with blockading the city (so that other Home Army units couldn’t reach it in support), not only supplied those units, instead of intercepting them, but some Hungarians even joined in, and took part on Poles‘ side. After the uprising, they were mercilessly hunted by the Germans. When the Hungarian commander was asked about why did he do it, by the German regional commander, who sent him the order to intercept Home Army units, he simply responded: „Hungary is not at war with Poland.“

Warsaw was the most destroyed city in human history, not once but twice in the war, 85% of Warsaw was destroyed, more than even Stalingrad infrastructure wise, and the civilian casualties were over 50% of the prewar population, absolutely insane when you read about this shit, I feel like edgy neo-nazi kids online these days have no clue on the level of atrocities they inflicted on even people that these days they’d consider very much „white“, RIP to the heroes of the uprising, its amazing how far Warsaw has come today from what was

I can’t imagine how heartbreaking this must have been for the Polish Free Forces in the west who had to sit by and watch this happen without being able to help. Especially the airborne chaps.

I will copy another comment: Little known outside of Poland, that these people were not celebrated as heroes when the war was over. To the contrary:
>Most soldiers of the Home Army (including those who took part in the Warsaw Uprising) were persecuted after the war; captured by the NKVD or UB political police. They were interrogated and imprisoned on various charges, such as that of fascism. Many of them were sent to Gulags, executed or disappeared.
>Between 1944 and 1956, all of the former members of Battalion Zośka were incarcerated in Soviet prisons.
>In March 1945, a staged trial of 16 leaders of the Polish Underground State held by the Soviet Union took place in Moscow – (the Trial of the Sixteen). The Government Delegate, together with most members of the Council of National Unity and the C-i-C of the Armia Krajowa, were invited by Soviet general Ivan Serov with agreement of Joseph Stalin to a conference on their eventual entry to the Soviet-backed Provisional Government.
>They were presented with a warrant of safety, yet they were arrested in Pruszków by the NKVD on 27 and 28 March. Leopold Okulicki, Jan Stanisław Jankowski and Kazimierz Pużak were arrested on the 27th with 12 more the next day. A. Zwierzynski had been arrested earlier. They were brought to Moscow for interrogation in the Lubyanka. After several months of brutal interrogation and torture, they were presented with the forged accusations of collaboration with Nazis and planning a military alliance with Germany.
All information about the Warsaw Uprising was subject to censorship. In 1974, in recommendations to censors, the Central Office of Control of the Press, Publications and Performances banned the publication of any information regarding commemorations, including the publication of death certificates for veterans of the uprising paid for by their families, in the local press.
Eternal shame on the local commanders of the Home Army who caused the deaths of 200,000 people, the destruction of the city, and gained nothing in return.

Quite a paralel with the situation in Gaza. Desperate act of resistance that ended up with the entire city getting destroyed and hundreds of thousands of civilians dying.

A national suicide initiated by Soviet agents at the Home Army headquarters. One of the main initiators was Leopold Okulicki, who was recruited by the Soviets while imprisoned in Lubyanka. After arriving in England, he was sent by General Sosnkowski to Poland from Great Britain to prevent the outbreak of an uprising, but once there, he began to push for it and threatened Home Army commanders that they would be hanged if they did not start the uprising.

Norman Davies wrote that „Monter“ sent some lieutenant to meet our people who were breaking through from the Old Town. The lieutenant replied that the area was full of German machine guns. „Monter“ responded: „That’s an order!“ So the lieutenant ran off, and five minutes later they brought him back with his legs blown off. He said, „Order carried out,“ and died. Over a hundred people were killed. Now they lay flowers on „Monter’s“ grave, but that operation was a complete senseless waste!

Fun fact, because people most often talk about how much of Warsaw was destroyed, and not that often about population – after the uprising population was expelled, and around 150 000 people were sent to the death, concentration and labour camps.
In ’39 Warsaw had a population of around 1,3 million, and when Soviets entered Warsaw in the beginning of ’45, only around 1000 people still lived in the ruins
