Soviet partisans were guerrilla fighters who operated in occupied Soviet territories during World War II, particularly from 1941 to 1945. They engaged in sabotage, intelligence gathering, and direct attacks against German forces and collaborators. These groups were often composed of local civilians, military personnel, and members of the Communist Party, and they played a crucial role in undermining the Nazi occupation. Their efforts contributed significantly to the overall Soviet war effort and morale.

Why did the partisans kill Benito Mussolini?

During the war, the partisans were fighting against the Germans who were occupying their country and the Italian Fascists who fought with the Germans. Mussolini had been kept as a puppet-leader of these Italians. The Partisans fought against their own people to stop the war. The Italian partisans were composed of many different types and beliefs of people. There were Catholic partisans, Communist partisans and others. In order to be stronger, they had to band together and formed "committees" to run their organization. It was the Communist leaders of the partisans who wanted to kill Mussolini as they opposed the Fascists and their beliefs. The committee had to go along with this as the Communist were a majority. Most people and the Catholic Church(the Vatican) feared the take-over by Communists more than they did Mussolini's Fascists or the Germans. The Communist partisan leaders heard that Mussolini and many of his Fascists had been captured. They demanded and were allowed to take Mussolini and 15 Fascists for their execution.


Why was Benito Mussolini hung upside down?

Because the partisans wanted to humiliate his dead body Some sources say that there was a tradition of hanging thieves upside down.
