On May 7, 1954, the Battle of Dien Bien Phu concluded with a decisive victory for the Viet Minh forces against the French colonial army in Vietnam. This battle marked a significant turning point in the First Indochina War and ultimately led to the end of French colonial rule in Indochina. The defeat prompted France to negotiate a withdrawal, which was formalized in the Geneva Accords later that year, dividing Vietnam into North and South. This event set the stage for increased U.S. involvement in the region and the subsequent Vietnam War.
