East Pomeranian offensive
The East Pomeranian strategic offensive operation (Russian: Восточно-Померанская наступательная операция) was an offensive by the Soviet Red Army against the German Wehrmacht on the Eastern Front. It took place in Pomerania and West Prussia from 10 February – 4 April 1945. The operation happened in four phases: Konitz–Köslin offensive operation 24 February – 6 March 1945 Danzig offensive operation 7–31 March 1945 Arnswalde–Kolberg offensive operation 1–18 March 1945 Altdamm offensive operation 18 March – 4 April 1945 (near Stettin) It was the East Pomeranian offensive that prevented Zhukov from reaching Berlin in February (the object of the massive Vistula–Oder offensive), since it became a priority to clear German forces from Pomerania first.
