An additional, political goal of the <a href="/wiki/Polish_Underground_State" title="Polish Underground State">Polish Underground State</a> was to liberate Poland's capital and assert Polish sovereignty before the Soviet Union and Soviet-backed <a href="/wiki/Polish_Committee_of_National_Liberation" title="Polish Committee of National Liberation">Polish Committee of National Liberation</a>, which already controlled eastern Poland, could assume control. Other immediate causes included a threat of mass German round-ups of able-bodied Poles for <a href="/wiki/Death_march#World_War_II" title="Death march">"evacuation"</a>; calls by <a href="/wiki/Radio_Moscow" title="Radio Moscow">Radio Moscow</a>'s Polish Service for uprising; and an emotional Polish desire for justice and revenge against the enemy after five years of German occupation.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEDavies2008268,_271-18">[18]</a><a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a> Despite the early gains by the Home Army, the Germans successfully counterattacked on August 25th, in an attack that killed as many as 40,000 civilians. The uprising was now in a siege phase which favored the better-equipped Germans and eventually the Home Army surrendered on October 2 when their supplies ran out. The Germans then deported the remaining civilians in the city and razed the city itself. In the end, as many as 15,000 insurgents and 250,000 civilians lost their lives, while the Germans lost around 16,000 men.<a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a> Scholarship since the fall of the <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet Union</a>, combined with eyewitness accounts, has questioned Soviet motives and suggested their lack of support for the Warsaw Uprising represented their ambitions in Eastern Europe.

In addition, between 150,000 and 200,000 Polish civilians died, mostly from mass executions. <a href="/wiki/Rescue_of_Jews_by_Poles_during_the_Holocaust" title="Rescue of Jews by Poles during the Holocaust">Jews being harboured by Poles</a> were exposed by German house-to-house clearances and mass evictions of entire neighbourhoods.

Many units retreated outside of the city, into the forests. Although they captured most of the area around Żoliborz, the soldiers of Colonel Mieczysław Niedzielski ("Żywiciel") failed to secure the Citadel area and break through German defences at <a href="/wiki/Warszawa_Gda%C5%84ska_station" class="mw-redirect" title="Warszawa Gdańska station">Warsaw Gdańsk</a> railway station.<a href="#cite_note-85">[85]</a></li> <li>Area III (<a href="/wiki/Wola" title="Wola">Wola</a>): Units initially secured most of the territory, but sustained heavy losses (up to 30%). Some units retreated into the forests, while others retreated to the eastern part of the area. In the northern part of Wola the soldiers of Colonel Jan Mazurkiewicz ("Radosław") managed to capture the German barracks, the German supply depot at Stawki Street, and the flanking position at the <a href="/wiki/Okopowa_Street_Jewish_Cemetery" class="mw-redirect" title="Okopowa Street Jewish Cemetery">Okopowa Street Jewish Cemetery</a> (see <a href="/wiki/Defense_of_the_Wola_cemeteries" title="Defense of the Wola cemeteries">Defense of the Wola cemeteries</a>).[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>]</li> <li>Area IV (<a href="/wiki/Ochota" title="Ochota">Ochota</a>): The units mobilized in this area did not capture either the territory or the military targets (the <a href="/wiki/G%C4%99si%C3%B3wka" title="Gęsiówka">Gęsiówka</a> concentration camp, and the SS and <a href="/wiki/Sicherheitspolizei" title="Sicherheitspolizei">Sipo</a> barracks on Narutowicz Square). After suffering heavy casualties most of the Home Army forces retreated to the forests west of Warsaw. Only two small units of approximately 200 to 300 men under Lieut. Andrzej Chyczewski ("Gustaw") remained in the area and managed to create strong pockets of resistance. They were later reinforced by units from the city centre. Elite units of the <a href="/wiki/Kedyw" title="Kedyw">Kedyw</a> managed to secure most of the northern part of the area and captured all of the military targets there. However, they were soon tied down by German tactical counter-attacks from the south and west.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>]</li> <li>Area V (<a href="/wiki/Mokot%C3%B3w" title="Mokotów">Mokotów</a>): The situation in this area was very serious from the start of hostilities. The partisans aimed to capture the heavily defended Police Area (Dzielnica policyjna) on <a href="/wiki/Rakowiecka" class="mw-redirect" title="Rakowiecka">Rakowiecka</a> Street, and establish a connection with the city centre through open terrain at the former airfield of <a href="/wiki/Mokot%C3%B3w_Field" title="Mokotów Field">Mokotów Field</a>. As both of the areas were heavily fortified and could be approached only through open terrain, the assaults failed. Some units retreated into the forests, while others managed to capture parts of Dolny Mokotów, which was, however, severed from most communication routes to other areas.<a href="#cite_note-86">[86]</a></li> <li>Area VI (<a href="/wiki/Praga" title="Praga">Praga</a>): The Uprising was also started on the right bank of the Vistula, where the main task was to seize the bridges on the river and secure the bridgeheads until the arrival of the Red Army. It was clear that, since the location was far worse than that of the other areas, there was no chance of any help from outside. After some minor initial successes, the forces of Lt.Col. Antoni Żurowski ("Andrzej") were badly outnumbered by the Germans. The fights were halted, and the Home Army forces were forced back underground.<a href="#cite_note-wutime-74">[74]</a></li> <li>Area VII (<a href="/wiki/Powiat" title="Powiat">Powiat</a> warszawski): this area consisted of territories outside Warsaw city limits.

These units secured parts of Śródmieście and Wola; along with the units of Area I, they were the most successful during the first few hours.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Among the most notable primary targets that were not taken during the opening stages of the uprising were the airfields of Okęcie and <a href="/wiki/Mokot%C3%B3w_Field" title="Mokotów Field">Mokotów Field</a>, as well as the PAST skyscraper overlooking the city centre and the <a href="/wiki/Warszawa_Gda%C5%84ska_station" class="mw-redirect" title="Warszawa Gdańska station">Gdańsk railway station</a> guarding the passage between the centre and the northern borough of Żoliborz.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] The leaders of the uprising counted only on the rapid entry of the Red Army in Warsaw ('on the second or third or, at the latest, by the seventh day of the fighting'<a href="#cite_note-87">[87]</a>) and were more prepared for a confrontation with the Russians. At this time, the head of the government in exile Mikolajczyk met with Stalin on 3 August 1944 in Moscow and raised the questions of his imminent arrival in Warsaw, the return to power of his government in Poland, as well as the Eastern borders of Poland, while categorically refusing to recognize the <a href="/wiki/Curzon_Line" title="Curzon Line">Curzon Line</a> as the basis for negotiations.<a href="#cite_note-Geoffrey_Roberts_2008._p.212-88">[88]</a> In saying this, Mikolajczyk was well aware that the USSR and Stalin had repeatedly stated their demand for recognition of the Curzon Line as the basis for negotiations and categorically refused to change their position. 23 March 1944 Stalin said 'he could not depart from the Curzon Line; in spite of Churchill's post-Teheran reference to his Curzon Line policy as one 'of force', he still believed it to be the only legitimate settlement'.<a href="#cite_note-89">[89]</a> Thus, the Warsaw uprising was actively used to achieve political goals. The question of assistance to the insurrection was not raised by Mikolajczyk, apparently for reasons that it might weaken the position in the negotiations. 'The substance of the two-and-a-half-hour discussion was a harsh disagreement about future of Poland, the Uprising – considered by the Poles as a bargaining chip – turned to be disadvantageous for Mikolajczyk's position since it made him seem like a supplicant (...) Nothing was agreed about the Uprising.'<a href="#cite_note-90">[90]</a> The question of helping the "Home Army" with weapons was only raised, but Stalin refused to discuss this question until the formation of a new government was decided.<a href="#cite_note-Geoffrey_Roberts_2008._p.212-88">[88]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Wola_massacre">Wola massacre</h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Wola_massacre" title="Wola massacre">Wola massacre</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Uprising_defender.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/40/Uprising_defender.jpg/220px-Uprising_defender.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="152" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="640" data-file-height="442"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 152px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/40/Uprising_defender.jpg/220px-Uprising_defender.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="152" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/40/Uprising_defender.jpg/330px-Uprising_defender.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/40/Uprising_defender.jpg/440px-Uprising_defender.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Home Army soldier armed with <a href="/wiki/B%C5%82yskawica_submachine_gun" title="Błyskawica submachine gun">Błyskawica submachine gun</a> defending a barricade in Powiśle District of Warsaw during the Uprising, August 1944</figcaption></figure> The Uprising reached its <a href="/wiki/Apogee" class="mw-redirect" title="Apogee">apogee</a> on 4 August when the Home Army soldiers managed to establish front lines in the westernmost boroughs of Wola and Ochota.

Over a million were still living in the city at the start of the Uprising. In Polish-controlled territory, during the first weeks of the Uprising, people tried to recreate the normal day-to-day life of their free country. Cultural life was vibrant, both among the soldiers and civilian population, with theatres, post offices, newspapers and similar activities.<a href="#cite_note-112">[112]</a> Boys and girls of the <a href="/wiki/Zwi%C4%85zek_Harcerstwa_Polskiego" class="mw-redirect" title="Związek Harcerstwa Polskiego">Polish Scouts</a> acted as couriers for an underground postal service, risking their lives daily to transmit any information that might help their people.<a href="#cite_note-wutime-74">[74]</a><a href="#cite_note-113">[113]</a> Near the end of the Uprising, lack of food and medicine, overcrowding and indiscriminate German air and artillery assault on the city made the civilian situation more and more desperate.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Booby traps, such as <a href="/wiki/Thermite" title="Thermite">thermite</a>-laced candy pieces, may have also been used in German-controlled districts of Warsaw; targeting Polish youth.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Food_shortages">Food shortages</h3></div> As the Uprising was supposed to be relieved by the Soviets in a matter of days, the Polish underground did not predict food shortages would be a problem. However, as the fighting dragged on, the inhabitants of the city faced hunger and starvation. A major break-through took place on 6 August, when Polish units recaptured the <a href="/wiki/Haberbusch_i_Schiele" title="Haberbusch i Schiele">Haberbusch i Schiele</a> brewery complex at Ceglana Street. From that time on the citizens of Warsaw lived mostly on barley from the brewery's warehouses. Every day up to several thousand people organized into cargo teams reported to the brewery for bags of barley and then distributed them in the city centre. The barley was then ground in coffee grinders and boiled with water to form a so-called spit-soup (<a href="/wiki/Polish_language" title="Polish language">Polish</a>: pluj-zupa).

This basic scenario of an uprising against the Germans, launched a few days before the arrival of Allied forces, played out successfully in a number of European capitals, such as <a href="/wiki/Liberation_of_Paris" title="Liberation of Paris">Paris</a><a href="#cite_note-145">[145]</a> and <a href="/wiki/Prague_uprising" title="Prague uprising">Prague</a>. However, despite easy capture of area south-east of Warsaw barely 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) from the city centre and holding these positions for about 40 days, the Soviets did not extend any effective aid to the resistance within Warsaw. At that time city outskirts were defended by the under-manned and under-equipped <a href="/wiki/73rd_Infantry_Division_(Wehrmacht)" title="73rd Infantry Division (Wehrmacht)">German 73rd Infantry Division</a> which was destroyed many times on the Eastern Front and was yet-again being reconstituted.<a href="#cite_note-146">[146]</a> The weak German defence forces did not experience any significant Soviet pressure during that period, which effectively allowed them to strengthen German forces fighting against uprising in the city itself. <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Piesc-czujka.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Piesc-czujka.jpg/220px-Piesc-czujka.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="141" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="800" data-file-height="511"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 141px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Piesc-czujka.jpg/220px-Piesc-czujka.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="141" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Piesc-czujka.jpg/330px-Piesc-czujka.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Piesc-czujka.jpg/440px-Piesc-czujka.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Soldier from the Pięść Battalion led by <a href="/wiki/Stanis%C5%82aw_Jankowski" title="Stanisław Jankowski">Stanisław "Agaton" Jankowski</a>, pictured on a rooftop of a house near the <a href="/wiki/Evangelical%E2%80%93Augsburg_Cemetery,_Warsaw" title="Evangelical–Augsburg Cemetery, Warsaw">Evangelical cemetery</a> in the <a href="/wiki/Wola" title="Wola">Wola</a> district of Warsaw, 2 August 1944</figcaption></figure> The Red Army was fighting intense battles further to the south of Warsaw, to seize and maintain bridgeheads over the Vistula river, and to the north of the city, to gain bridgeheads over the river Narew. The best German armoured divisions were fighting on those sectors. Despite the fact, both of these objectives had been mostly secured by September. Yet the Soviet 47th Army did not move into Praga on the right bank of the Vistula, until 11 September (when the Uprising was basically over). In three days the Soviets quickly gained control of the suburb, a few hundred meters from the main battle on the other side of the river, as the resistance by the German 73rd Division collapsed quickly. Had the Soviets done this in early August, the crossing of the river would have been easier, as the Poles then held considerable stretches of the riverfront. However, by mid-September a series of German attacks had reduced the Poles to holding one narrow stretch of the riverbank, in the district of Czerniaków. The Poles were counting on the Soviet forces to cross to the left bank where the main battle of the uprising was occurring. Though Berling's communist 1st Polish Army did cross the river, their support from the Soviets was inadequate and the main Soviet force did not follow them.<a href="#cite_note-147">[147]</a> One of the reasons given for the collapse of the Uprising was the reluctance of the Soviet Red Army to help the Polish resistance. On 1 August, the day of Uprising, the Soviet advance was halted by a direct order from the Kremlin.<a href="#cite_note-Nowak-148">[148]</a> Soon afterwards the Soviet tank units stopped receiving any oil from their depots.<a href="#cite_note-Nowak-148">[148]</a> Soviets knew of the planned outbreak from their agents in Warsaw and, more importantly, directly from the Polish Prime Minister <a href="/wiki/Stanis%C5%82aw_Miko%C5%82ajczyk" title="Stanisław Mikołajczyk">Stanisław Mikołajczyk</a>, who informed them of the Polish Home Army uprising plans:<a href="#cite_note-Nowak-148">[148]</a><a href="#cite_note-149">[149]</a> The Soviet side was informed post-factum.

With his own army stopped on the Vistula River and facing Warsaw itself, and without first consulting his Soviet superiors, Berling may have independently issued orders to engage the German enemy and to come to the aid of the Polish resistance but it was a small landing without any tactical support from Berling or other Soviet units that could not make a difference in the situation of Warsaw.

The urgent orders issued to the Red Army troops in Poland on 23 August 1944 stipulated that the Home Army units in Soviet-controlled areas should be prevented from reaching Warsaw and helping the Uprising, their members apprehended and disarmed. Only from mid-September, under pressure from the Western Allies, did the Soviets began to provide some limited assistance to the resistance.<a href="#cite_note-Gibianskii-166">[166]</a> Modern Russian historians generally hold the view that the failure of the uprising in Warsaw was caused primarily by the mistakes of the leadership of the uprising. They argue that in July 1944, according to the Directive of the command, the Soviet troops did not have the goal of attacking Warsaw, but only to the suburbs of Warsaw – Praga with access to the Vistula river line. Since the Soviet command understood that it was unlikely to be possible to capture the bridges over the Vistula and the Germans would blow them up. The Soviet forces aimed to advance in the northern direction with the capture of <a href="/wiki/East_Prussia" title="East Prussia">East Prussia</a> and with the priority task of reaching the line of the Vistula and Narew rivers and capturing bridgeheads. Then the offensive against East Prussia was to begin from these bridgeheads. ("on the West Bank of the Narew river in the area of Pultusk, Serotsk and South and North of Warsaw – on the West Bank of the Vistula river in the area of Demblin, Zvolen, Solec. In the future keep in mind to advance in the General direction of Thorn and Lodz"<a href="#cite_note-167">[167]</a>). According to this argument, the Home Army leadership mistook the left flank of the 2nd Tank army, which was advancing to north, for the vanguard, which was allegedly advancing on Warsaw and the order was given to start the uprising, which led to defeat. Modern Russian historians generally blame this lack of coordination on the Home Army's desire to liberate Warsaw before the Soviets arrived there.<a href="#cite_note-168">[168]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(7)"><h2 id="Aftermath">Aftermath</h2></div><section class="mf-section-7 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-7"> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30,_Warschauer_Aufstand,_polnischer_Soldat.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg/220px-Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="158" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="800" data-file-height="576"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 158px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg/220px-Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="158" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg/330px-Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6b/Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg/440px-Bundesarchiv_Bild_146-1994-054-30%2C_Warschauer_Aufstand%2C_polnischer_Soldat.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Home Army soldier from the Mokotów District surrenders to German troops.</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Capitulation">Capitulation</h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Capitulation_after_the_Warsaw_Uprising" title="Capitulation after the Warsaw Uprising">Capitulation after the Warsaw Uprising</a></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote">The 9th Army has crushed the final resistance in the southern Vistula circle.

This figure was initially repeated in West Germany.<a href="#cite_note-196">[196]</a> However, in 1962 a scholarly monograph by Hanns Krannhals coined the 2,000 estimate.<a href="#cite_note-197">[197]</a> Until the late 20th century the 17,000 figure was consistently and unequivocally quoted in the Polish, though also in the East German and Soviet historiography,[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research" title="Wikipedia:No original research">original research?</a>] be it encyclopedias,<a href="#cite_note-198">[198]</a> scientific monographs<a href="#cite_note-199">[199]</a> or more popular works.<a href="#cite_note-200">[200]</a> It was at times paired or otherwise related to the figure of 16,000 German Warsaw KIA+MIA listed by the so-called Gehlen report of April 1945.<a href="#cite_note-201">[201]</a> The 2,000 figure was accepted in West Germany and generally spilled over to Western historiography;<a href="#cite_note-202">[202]</a> exceptions were studies written in English by the Poles<a href="#cite_note-203">[203]</a> and some other works.<a href="#cite_note-204">[204]</a> Komorowski, who in 1995 opted for 16,000, changed his mind and 10 years later cautiously subscribed to the 2,000 figure;<a href="#cite_note-205">[205]</a> also scholars like Sawicki<a href="#cite_note-206">[206]</a> and Rozwadowski<a href="#cite_note-207">[207]</a> tentatively followed suit.

The Warsaw Uprising is often confused with the revolt in the Warsaw Ghetto which took place a year earlier in the spring of 1943. Three young Europeans, Alexandra (France), Maria (Poland) and Roman (Germany) meet in Warsaw to enquire into these events; here they meet witnesses who took part in the Warsaw Uprising or lived in the ghetto. Beneath their white hair we can recognise the men and women who formed the living ramparts of freedom in the face of Nazism. Meanwhile, the Polish World War II TV drama series <a href="/wiki/Czas_honoru" class="mw-redirect" title="Czas honoru">Time of Honor</a> (Czas honoru; Series 7), which aired in 2014, was entirely devoted to the Warsaw Uprising.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] In cinema, they include: <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Kana%C5%82" title="Kanał">Kanał</a>, a 1956 Polish film directed by <a href="/wiki/Andrzej_Wajda" title="Andrzej Wajda">Andrzej Wajda</a>.
