Field of Operations: Leningrad
The siege began on 8 September 1941, when the Wehrmacht severed the last road to the city.

The blockade became one of the longest and most destructive sieges in history, and it was possibly the costliest siege in history due to the number of casualties which were suffered during it. In the 21st century some historians have classified it as a genocide due to the systematic starvation and intentional destruction of the city's civilian population.
