(4 - 6) Belarusian Lowlands

Operation Barbarossa marked the occupation of Belarus by Axis forces, and while there was some initial opposition, resistance quickly broke down, leading to total occupation within three months. Displaced from their homes, citizens and soldiers took resistance into their own hands, occupying the lowlands and forests of Belarus as a staging ground for continuous skirmishes of attrition. With support from the Soviet Union, and the organisation of several Partisan forces, the Belarusian resistance fought back. After considerable losses of communications equipment, fuel, munitions and vehicles, Axis forces retreated until Operation Bagration commenced, attempting the overwhelm the forests en masse.
