How many civilians died in bombing raids Germany during ww2?

It is difficult to determine the exact number of civilian deaths in Germany due to bombing raids during World War II, as estimates vary widely. According to some sources, approximately 300,000 to 600,000 German civilians were killed in Allied air raids during the war. Other estimates put the number closer to 1 million or even higher. The city of Dresden alone suffered heavy bombing during the Dresden bombings in February 1945, resulting in a massive loss of life, with estimates of civilian casualties ranging from 25,000 to 135,000.
