The Lwów Uprising was the armed struggle started by the Polish Armia Krajowa against the Nazi occupiers of Lwów, during World War II. It started on July 23, 1944 as a part of a plan of all-national uprising codenamed Operation Tempest and lasted until July 27.

On July 23 the Home Army forces in Lwów (now Lviv) started an armed uprising in cooperation with the advancing Soviet forces. The city was liberated in four days. After that the civil and military authorities were summoned for a meeting with Red Army commanders and captured by the NKVD. The remaining forces of col. Wladyslaw Filipkowski were either forcibly conscripted to the Red Army, sent to Gulag or returned to the underground.
