Operation Torch, the Allied invasion of North Africa in November 1942, resulted in approximately 19,000 Allied casualties. This figure includes both killed and wounded. The operation marked a significant turning point in the North African Campaign, despite the losses incurred.
During the Battle of Tunisia in World War II, Axis forces, primarily composed of German and Italian troops, were defeated by Allied forces. The campaign took place from November 1942 to May 1943, leading to the surrender of the remaining Axis troops in North Africa. This defeat marked a significant turning point in the North African campaign for the Allies.

Stalingrad wasn't the turning point for the war in North Africa. Stalingrad is in Russia, not North Africa. Stalingrad was a turning point for the war on the Eastern Front because it ground the German Army's advance to a halt and mired them in a nasty stalemate.

Do you mean which campaign was the turning-point of the American Civil War? It was the failure of Lee's invasion of Pennsylvania, ending at Gettysburg - on the same day that Grant took the surrender of Vicksburg on the Mississippi. After that, the North was bound to win - subject to Lincoln winning the Presidential Election of November 1864.
