The total irretrievable losses of the Soviet troops during the East Prussian operation (from January 13 to April 25, 1945) amounted to 126,464 people.

The most important point, the key to East Prussia, was the fortress city of Königsberg. The German command took all possible measures to prepare the fortress for long-term resistance in conditions of complete isolation. In Koenigsberg there were underground factories, numerous arsenals and warehouses. The fortress defense system consisted of an external defensive bypass, which was overcome by the Soviet troops back in January 1945, and three internal bypasses.

The first defensive bypass was located 6-8 km from the city center and included from 2 to 7 lines of defensive trenches with communication passages, field and engineering barriers, as well as 15 old forts dug into the ground and ringed with ditches filled with water.

This was supposed to mislead Soviet artillery reconnaissance and observers and lead to a waste of ammunition. The commander of the 3rd Guards Artillery Division, General S. Popov, recalled: “The reconnaissance of carefully camouflaged long-term structures located among urban buildings turned out to be especially difficult. There were also false trenches among them. We found one such trench on the outskirts of Charlottenburg. False shooting cells, machine-gun platforms, improvised pillboxes and bunkers were built along its entire length.
