Hi
Need some help for getting materials about Luftwaffe air attacks against Minsk in June 1941. Especially for June 24.
I have some aerials for this day, but it's not clear for me the sequence of air attacks, which lasted for the full day and which Luftwaffe units (KG3?/Luftflotte 2) were involved in those fights as well as their losses.
Russian/Byelorussian sources are very, very brief and contains very limited number of details, mostly eye-witnesses, which could see only small fragments of those large-scale attacks against the town. It was about 18 attacks this day started at ~9:30 AM and lasted until ~ 9-00 PM with 15-20 minute pauses between them.
Any assistance is welcomed.
Regards
Alex
