At the beginning of September 1941, the German command began preparing the operation to capture Moscow. The idea of the operation was to use powerful strikes from large groups to encircle the main forces of the Red Army troops covering the capital and destroy them in the areas of Bryansk and Vyazma, and then quickly bypass Moscow from the north and south with the aim of capturing it. The operation to capture Moscow was codenamed “Typhoon”. The Germans captured Kalinin, Mozhaisk, Maloyaroslavets. In mid-October, the evacuation of government institutions, the diplomatic corps, industrial enterprises, and the population from Moscow began. The rush to evacuate created confusion and panic. Rumors spread throughout Moscow about the planned surrender of the city to the Germans. This forced the State Defense Committee to introduce a state of siege in Moscow from October 20. By the beginning of November, the city’s defenders managed to stop the enemy’s advance, and on December 5, Soviet troops, having repelled a number of more attacks, went on the offensive. On the fields of the Moscow region, Germany suffered its first major defeat in World War II, and the myth of the invincibility of its army was dispelled.
