“In four raids between 13 and 15 February 1945, 772 heavy bombers of the Royal Air Force (RAF) and 527 of the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) dropped more than 3,900 tons of high-explosive bombs and incendiary devices on the city.[a] The bombing and the resulting firestorm destroyed more than 1,600 acres (6.5 km2) of the city centre.[6] Up to 25,000 people were killed.[1][2] Three more USAAF air raids followed, two occurring on 2 March aimed at the city's railway marshalling yard and one smaller raid on 17 April aimed at industrial areas.“
