The Dresden Genocide
February 13 is a date of general mourning for European patriots because we remember the horrific genocide suffered by the German population in the city of Dresden, a genocide that began on February 13, 1945.

Germany's criminal enemies took advantage of the fact that the Luftwaffe could no longer protect German skies to launch a series of horrific bombing raids towards the end of World War II, a crime committed by the Royal Air Force of Great Britain and the Air Force of the U.S.A
There were four consecutive air raids that occurred between February 13 and 15, 1945, just twelve weeks before the capitulation of Germany. At that time the city was overcrowded with refugees from the east. It is estimated that there were at least 300,000 deaths,
although the exact figure has never been determined.
Attacks with incendiary bombs💔
These attacks were of a criminal and ruthless nature that it is difficult to understand how these pilots lent themselves to such barbarity.
During the bombings, an incredible number of more than a thousand heavy bombers went into action, dropping nearly 4,000 tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary devices on "the florence on the Elbe", leveling much of the city and unleashing a firestorm consumed the historic
center of the city.
The second attack, mostly with thermite firebombs, was scheduled for three hours later so that firefighters (also arriving from other cities to put out the fire) would fall victim to the attack. There was no opposition at all.
No German fighter and no anti-aircraft fire.
Before dawn, there was a third attack with almost 150,000 incendiary bombs and drums of phosphorus, to activate the horrific pyre. Escort fighters were instructed to descend to rooftop level and sweep "targets of opportunity."
They opened fire on masses of people crowding the roads out of Dresden and on anything visible. A group of children, from the famous choir of the Kreuzkirche Church, was massacred in the street of the zoo
British prisoners of war, who had been released as their internment camps
were burning, were machine-gunned as well.
