The Battle of the Kamenets-Podolsky Pocket, also known as Hube's Pocket, was a Wehrmacht attempt on the Eastern Front of World War II to evade encirclement by the Red Army.
During the Proskurov-Chernovtsy Offensive Operation (4 March-17 April 1944) and the Uman-Botosani Offensive Operation (5 March-17 April 1944) the 1st and 2nd Ukrainian Fronts encircled Generaloberst Hans-Valentin Hube's 1st Panzer Army north of the Dniester river. The 1st Panzer Army's personnel were largely able to escape the encirclement in April.

Famous quotes containing the word pocket:
“They would have me as familiar with men’s pockets as their
gloves or their handkerchiefs; which makes much against my
manhood, if I should take from another’s pocket to put into
mine; for it is plain pocketing up of wrongs.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
