The 900 day siege of Leningrad is broken on January 27, 1944, when the Soviet Leningrad–Novgorod Offensive expels the German forces from the southern outskirts of the city.
This was a combined effort by the Leningrad and Volkhov Fronts, along with the 1st and 2nd Baltic Fronts. The estimates of the death toll vary, but it is believed than more than 1 million Leningrad residents perished from hunger or bombardments, during the siege.
