After losing Operation Zitadelle in summer 1943, the German Wehrmacht was on retreat on all fronts. The town Kiev, which was conquered by the germans in 1941, is again a battlefield in October 1943. The Sovjet Army is closing in onto the city, which was nearly bombed to dust by former fights and to weaken the still strong German Wehrmacht. Heavy fights between remaining tank forces and infantry can be expected in the ruins and important bridges over the Dniepr river.
