Budapest – Hungary
Hungarian citizens stand atop a captured Soviet IS-3 tank. The revolt began when a delegation from a student demonstration attempted to occupy the state radio station. They were detained, but the demonstration demanded their release, State Security Police fired on the crowd, which resulted in violent protest breaking out all over the city, followed by the entire country, toppling the Government. At first the Soviet Politburo considered a military withdrawal, but then reneged and sent in tanks to violently suppress the uprising.
