Soviet troops. Over 2.5 million assaulted the city. The allies dicussed Berlin with the Soviets and because the Soviets fought the Germans the longest and were responsible for 60% of allied casualties it was only fair that the soviets would assault the city. Also before the assault the Soviets barraged Berlin with the largest artillery bombardment in history using 50,000 pieces of artillery.

Very close. Not known for sure, but often mentioned to be less than 1,000 yards. Could have been a few hours or one day before the Soviet troops discovered Hitler's Berlin bunker and fought their way inside.
Berlin was reached by the Russians first in WW2. Russian & US forces came together on the river Elbe. There was much distrust between the Allies at this time, which led to become the 'Cold War'.
You probably mean Berlin airlift. Stalin felt it a problem that the people living in the Russian zone could see the prosperity in the other three zones (French, British, American). As he could not remove the Allies from Berlin, he ordered to close all the railroads, roads and canals that entered West Berlin through the Russian zone.This way he wanted to cut off all the supplies of food and fuel as well. In West Berlin, the only way to provide for themselves was to fly in supplies - it was called the Berlin airlift. Fortunately Stalin did not dare to shoot down the planes. This situation went on for 11 months when Stalin gave in. After the removal of the blockade, the three zones in West Berlin united and formed the German Federal Republic.
