«Breaking News» German soldier's unseen photos reveal invasion of Russia

An incredible diary provides a sinister and poignant insight into the invasion of the Soviet Union through the eyes of a German soldier on the Eastern Front at the height of the Second World War.


A candid collection of photographs captures Operation Barbarossa where Hitler's troops launched a brutal and prolonged attack on Soviet forces in Russia which resulted in the deaths of six million soldiers and - following Germany's failure to defeat the Red Army - proved a turning point in the war against the Nazis. 


The collection is believed to have been compiled by a German soldier from the Nazi's feared armoured tank unit known as the Panzer division which wreaked havoc on enemy lines thanks to its advanced technology and innovative Blitzkrieg military strategy.  


There are chilling images of Jewish ghettos, surrendering Russian soldiers and the debris of bombed cities including Minsk, which fell into German hands within weeks of the major offensive, known as Operation Barbarossa, being launched.   




Here you can see some of the many Russian troops who abandoned their uniforms and tried to surrender as civilians, while a cheery German soldier stands in front of them

General Heinz Guderian is pictured in front of his scout car. He played a key role in the Blitzkreig across the Low Countries and France and commanded 2nd Panzer Group during the invasion. He later defied Hitler’s personal orders not to retreat when the Russians counter-attacked, resulting in him being sidelined by the High Command.

There are also candid images of German soldiers skinny dipping and sewing as they make repairs to their uniforms.


In total, there are 190 photos in the album which has been consigned for sale with Tennants Auctioneers, of Leyburn in North Yorkshire by an elderly private collector who acquired it from Germany. 


Oonagh Drage, specialist at Tennants, said: 'The album shows the early stage of Operation Barbarossa.


'There are photos of bombed buildings and destroyed military equipment, portraits of German officers, displaced refugees, surrendering Russians including group of snipers and graphic scenes of casualties.


'The album has belonged to an elderly gentleman collector who acquired the album some time ago from a source in Germany but is selling now to pay for his care costs.'


The photos document the triumphant early months of the campaign as the Germans marched deeper into Soviet territory.

 Debris littered the streets of Minsk, which fell into German hands within weeks of the invasion starting. The Germans designated Minsk the administrative centre of Reichskomissariat Ostland. Communists and sympathisers were killed or imprisoned and homes were requisitioned to house German forces.

Two German soldiers are seen adding to a 5ft pile of bread loaves which were used to fuel their comrades during the advance. But German food supplies diminished later in the invasion. The German troops starved during Battle of Stalingrad, the largest confrontation of World War II, in which they fought for control of the city of Stalingrad.

Pictured is the entrance to a Ghetto - presumed to be Warsaw. Those resident at the ghetto in Warsaw had to ensure horrendous conditions. The density of the population was severe with a reported 146,000 people per square kilometre - meaning eight to ten people per room. Jews were only allowed to bring the bare minimum with them to the ghetto

Some of the images focus on the city of Minsk which was flattened by the Germans, causing the displacement of millions of refugees.


High ranking officers, including the Luftwaffe ace Werner Molders can be seen inspecting maps as they plot their next move.


Molders, the first pilot in history to claim 100 aerial combat victories, died months later in November 1941 in an air crash in which he was a passenger.


Another snap shows a 5ft high pile of bread loafs to fuel the German soldiers during the advance.


However, the Germans were halted by the freezing winter of 1941 and became embroiled in a war of attrition with the Russians which ended in a chastening defeat.


Both sides endured huge losses, with one million German and five million Soviet soldiers perishing in the conflict.


The sale takes place on Friday and the album is tipped to sell for £150.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
