The Imphal Campaign was a crucial military operation during World War II, taking place from March to June 1944. It involved a series of battles between British Commonwealth forces and Japanese troops in and around Imphal, India. The campaign aimed to protect India from Japanese expansion and to cut off their supply lines. The Allies successfully defended Imphal, leading to significant Japanese losses and ultimately their retreat. This victory was pivotal in turning the tide against Japan in Southeast Asia, contributing to the eventual Allied success in the war.
