Overview:
Kharkov was again becoming the focal point for a major battle for the fourth and last time as the rampaging Red armies of Vatutin and Konev converged on the city—the site of huge German supply dumps. The first Soviets to reach the city belonged to an armored formation of the 57th Army which had crushed the 848th Grenadier Regiment of the 282nd Infantry Division on August 10th and rolled into the eastern part of the city where they took over the tractor plant and other factories. German morale collapsed to the point where imposition of draconian courts-martial was considered. However, the troops rallied and plans to shoot every tenth man of the division were dismissed. The 6th Panzer Division was hurriedly dispatched to counterattack in an effort to throw the Russians out of the city.Attacker: German (282nd Infantry Division/6th Panzer Division and Tiger Battalion 503)
Defender: Russian (57th Army)
