What important event is this text about?: In 1943, Stalin gave in to his generals' request that the Soviet Union take a defensive posture due to disappointing losses after the Battle of Stalingrad, a lack of reserves for offensive measures, and the prediction that the Germans would likely attack a bulge on the Soviet front at Kursk such that defensive preparations there would more efficiently use resources. The Germans attempted an encirclement attack on Kursk, which was successfully repulsed by the Soviets after Hitler called off the offensive, in part, due to the Allied invasion of Sicily, although the Soviets suffered over 800,000 casualties. The Battle of Kursk also marked the beginning of a period in which Stalin became more willing to listen to the advice of his generals.<end_of_turn>
