@halalssounds: 10 May 1940, Germany invades the neutral Netherlands. 🎞️ On 10 May 1940, Germany attacked the Netherlands without a declaration of war. Paratroopers landed on the first day while army units crossed the border. Five days of fighting followed. On 14 May, German planes bombed Rotterdam while surrender talks were under way. The Dutch commander-in-chief signed the capitulation on 15 May. Dutch troops under French command kept fighting in Zeeland a little longer. About this clip: AI-colorized from German army footage made in 1941. It was propaganda, so it shows the attack the way the German side wanted it seen. The colors are researched but remain an interpretation. Original footage credited to its archive. I post this for historical study and education only, never to praise the invasion or the regime. Comments that glorify Nazism will be removed. #colorizedhistory #ww2history #historytok #netherlands #fallgelb
