The invasion itself was swift and relentless. By early July, the German 11th Army had seized the key Ploiești oil fields, securing a vital resource for the Nazi war machine. The Rumanian army, initially eager to join the offensive against the Soviet Union, soon found itself relegated to a supporting role as the Wehrmacht spearheaded the advance.

Occupation

With the invasion complete, Rumania fell under the iron grip of the Nazi New Free Download. Ion Antonescu, the country's fascist dictator, became Hitler's willing puppet, eager to implement the Nazi agenda of racial purification, economic exploitation, and territorial expansion.

The occupation brought with it a torrent of horrors for the Rumanian people. Jews, Roma (Gypsies),and political dissidents were subjected to persecution, internment, and extermination. The country's resources were ruthlessly pillaged, its economy drained to support the German war effort.

The Nazi regime's antisemitic policies were particularly heinous. Jews were stripped of their rights, their property confiscated, and their lives extinguished in the gas chambers of Auschwitz-Birkenau. An estimated 380,000 Romanian Jews perished in the Holocaust, leaving a gaping wound in the nation's fabric.

Resistance

Despite the crushing oppression, the Rumanian people refused to bow to the Nazi yoke. A spirit of defiance emerged, giving rise to a vibrant underground movement that risked everything to undermine the occupation.

One of the most notable resistance groups was the Communist Party of Romania. Led by Ana Pauker, the party organized strikes, sabotage operations, and armed clashes with the German occupiers.

In the years that followed, Rumania struggled to rebuild and grapple with the legacy of the Nazi occupation.
