#7 Bombing of Le Havre:

Le Havre was originally under the control one of the allied forces- France, during the World War II. But with the outbreak of Hitler and his Nazi army, throughout Europe, the city was captured. Although the city had so many of French natives, the nation had to impose an attack on the city to make rest of the country safe from German attack. As a result, the allied forces came up with Operation Astonia, where the attack was fought from 10 September 1944 to 12 September 1944. The French troop has no other way except to order an attack on the city of Le Havre. Called the Battle of Burgundy, the battle recorded over 5,000 deaths including number of innocents, mothers, families, and even little children; a very frightening part of the war.

#6 Bombing of Pforzheim:

This was clearly the aftermath of the allied attack. During the World War II, the allied forces where ready and eager to have their retribution on the Nazis. The only way to take revenge was to order an attack on the Nazi controlled cities and the town of Pforzheim was one of them. In February 23, 1945, the allied forces ordered the attack and the casualties rose over 17,600 people, just in a single night.
