Operation Winter Storm: Attempt to Relieve 6th Army
Battle of Stalingrad: December 12-18, 1942

German armed forces of Army Group Don made an unsuccessful attempt break through and relieve the German 6th Army encircled in Stalingrad. Soviet military resistance proved too great to overcome with the German units available and the German 6th Army remained isolated.
