Best Answer

The Blitz started as part of the invasion of Poland.

On September 25th, 1939, Germany terror bombed the city of Warsaw, Poland. Historically, this was the first 'blitz' air raid upon a civilian population, with an estimated 1150 bombing sorties made by the Luftwaffe, dropping approx 500 tons of explosives and 72 tons of incendiaries in the Warsaw Blitz.
