In the summer of 1944, while the world’s attention was fixed on D-Day, the Soviet Union unleashed the most devastating military deception in history — Operation Bagration. Through fake radio traffic, hidden divisions, and masterful maskirovka, the Red Army destroyed half a million enemy troops in just three weeks.

This is the story of how illusion, intelligence, and precision warfare reshaped World War II — and how one forgotten campaign in Belarus turned the tide of the entire conflict.

What you’ll discover:
• The hidden Soviet strategy that fooled German intelligence
• How maskirovka (military deception) became an art form
• The battle that eclipsed D-Day in scale and success
• The psychological tricks that misled entire armies
• Why this victory remains forgotten in Western history
