The turning point in the course of the war was the Soviet counterattack against the German 6th Army, which eventually led to its encirclement at Stalingrad and its surrender.

The retreating Germans regrouped and counterattacked the Soviet spearhead advancing from the Don region under the command of German General Meinstein, leading to the Third Battle of Kharkov and the subsequent Battle of Kursk.
