attentat mot Adolf Hitler 20 juli 1944

AI overview

The 20 July plot was a failed attempt by German military officers and conspirators to assassinate Adolf Hitler in 1944. It matters because it represents one of the most significant acts of resistance against the Nazi regime from within Germany itself, though its failure resulted in the execution of the conspirators and a brutal crackdown by the regime.

20 juli-attentatet kallas det mest kända attentatet mot Adolf Hitler. Det genomfördes den 20 juli 1944 i Hitlers högkvarter Wolfsschanze (Varglyan) nära Rastenburg i Ostpreussen. Attentatet följdes av ett kuppförsök i Berlin, med syfte att avveckla det nazistiska Tredje Riket och sluta separatfred med västmakterna.
