Mussolini's Great Escape - What Really Happened? (No AI) WW2 Documentary

By the summer of 1943, the once-untouchable leader of Fascist Italy, Benito Mussolini, had fallen from power. Arrested by his own King, ‘Il Duce’ was held in secret locations across Italy, and cut off from the outside world, to whose eyes, it seemed his reign was over for good. But, the Germans had other plans. In this video, we’ll explore the remarkable wartime footage of the actual operation, and with satellite imagery, unique archival material and by comparing the memoirs of those who were there, uncover the true story of Operation Eiche Creating these videos is a lot of work, and it would not be possible without your support.
