Überfall auf den Sender Gleiwitz or the Gleiwitz incident occurred on the night of 31 August. SS officers wearing Polish uniforms attack and seize the Gleiwitz radio station just inside the German border from Poland. They broadcast a brief anti-German message in Polish and leave a murdered German farmer, dressed as a sabatour as proof of Polish perfidy. This and several other „False Flag“ operations created the appearance of Polish aggression to justify the German invasion set for the following day.
The Asia-Pacific War that Japan had initiated against China in 1937 is about to explode into a truly global conflict.
