Air raids on Britain by Germany mainly used Zeppelin airships, although in 1917, aeroplanes were used. Tthe raids generated fear amongst the civilian population and consumed more resources than the actual raids - more than 10,000 men were diverted to air defenses. Altogether 557 people were killed in air raids in Britain in approximately 100 raids.
