Key turning points of World War II include the Battle of Stalingrad in 1942-1943, which marked the beginning of the Soviet Union's push westward against Nazi Germany. The D-Day invasion on June 6, 1944, allowed Allied forces to establish a foothold in Europe, leading to the liberation of Western Europe from Nazi control. Additionally, the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 forced Japan's surrender, effectively bringing the war to a close. These events collectively shifted the momentum in favor of the Allies.
