Modern warfare often extends to cities and rural areas inhabited by civilians. Sometimes the population has been evacuated, and sometimes civilians still live in cities during conflicts. Urban combat is very different from open-air combat at the tactical and operational levels. The brutal urban battles of Aleppo and Mosul, Hue (1968), Algiers (1956-1957), Beirut (1975-1990), Sarajevo (1992-1996), Fallujah (2004), Syria, Donbas, etc. have a common effect: they involve the systematic destruction of cities and show an environment that is repetitive. All of these urban wars have so many aspects in common that it is often difficult to even determine which conflict a scene might belong to unless we look closely at the details of the buildings or equipment, as we will see in this book of impressive 1:35 scale dioramas.
