The 20 July Plot, also known as Operation Valkyrie, was a failed attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler on 20 July 1944. German officers, led by Claus von Stauffenberg, placed a bomb in a briefcase at Hitler’s headquarters. The explosion killed four people, but Hitler survived with minor injuries. The planned coup failed within hours, and many conspirators were arrested and executed.
