Lyuban Operation (7 January 1942 - 30 April 1942) (Russian: Любанская наступательная орерация) was an offensive operation conducted by the Volkhov Front of the Red Army with the goal of relieving Leningrad. The offensive used no tanks because of the terrain, therefore it was down to the infantry and the artillery. The Soviets attacked but they were under intense fire from formidable German defensive positions, and the Soviets lacked proper artillery support on the German positions.
