The Baltic offensive, also known as the Baltic strategic offensive,[6] was the military campaign between the northern Fronts of the Red Army and the German Army Group North in the Baltic States during the autumn of 1944. The result of the series of battles was the isolation and encirclement of the Army Group North in the Courland Pocket and Soviet re-occupation of the Baltic States.[7] In Soviet propaganda, this offensive was listed as one of Stalin's ten blows.
