Pushtimi i Normandisë përmes fotove me ngjyra: Fotografi të mahnitshme të cilat tregojnë forcat aleate që përgaditen për betejë, duke valëzuar flamurët nazistë dhe pamje që tregojnë rrënojat e Francës Veriore.

Ishte operacioni ushtarak që u kthye nga vala e Luftës së Dytë Botërore.

Tani, më shumë se 70 vjet më parë, këto fotografi me ngjyra janë zbuluar nga Arkiva Kombëtare e Kanadasë.

Këto fotografi tregojnë betejat e përditshme të luftës së Normandisë, raportoi “Daily Mail”, transmeton Periskopi.

Operacioni i koduar me emrin “Overlord”, i cili kishte pushtuar këtë rajon, filloi më 6 qershor 1944 i njohur edhe si “D-Day”.

Këto imazhe tregojnë se ushtarët e këmbësorisë po përgatiten për brigjet e Normandisë, djemtë e rinj që mbajnë mitralozët dhe udhëtimi i tyre me tanke nëpër fshatra, si dhe shkatërrimi i mbetur pasi forcat aleate bombarduan qytetet dhe fshatrat për të rimarrë Francën nga Gjermania naziste./Periskopi/
