Unternehmen Entrückung (Operation Rapture) was the codename for the Allianz offensive against Apelia conducted in the autumn of 1947. The operation . The main offensive on the Southern front was led by Tierada and Vonzumier and supported by Camardocia, Lemerum, Aranquia, and Hevatia; a concurrent and complementary offensive on the northern front was led by Vierzland, and supported by Savland and Borland. The initial offensive broke a nine-month-long deadlock on the Western front and drove the Apelian Army into a full rout. The offensive concluded with the end of the Battle of Saint-Beaune, which saw the capital of Apelia fall under Allianz control. Apelian President Abel Mallaire resigned shortly after the end of the battle, and his successor Jean-Baptiste Brochard ordered the surrender of the Apelian military.
