Bala tentera Soviet dan militia tempatan melancarkan operasi bersepadu yang berasingan tetapi tidak teratur terhadap Jerman di Belgrade dan berjaya mengundurkan mereka.p.615, Wilmot "[the Red Army] entered Belgrade ... at the same time as Tito's partisans."; p.152, Seaton; "The Russians had no interest in the German occupation forces in Greece and appear to have had very little interest in those retiring northwards through Yugoslavia...Stalin was content to leave to Tito and the Bulgarians the clearing of Yugoslav territory from the enemy."; Library of Congress Country Studies citing "information from Documents on German Foreign Policy, 1919–1945, Arlington, Virginia, 1976": "...Soviet troops crossed the border on October 1, and a joint Partisan-Soviet force liberated Belgrade on October 20." Perancangan militari dikoordinasikan sama rata diantara pemimpin tentera, dan operasi ini sebahagian besarnya dihidupkan melalui kerjasama taktikal antara Josip Broz Tito dan Joseph Stalin yang bermula pada September 1944. Persediaan militari ini membolehkan tentera Bulgaria terlibat dalam operasi diseluruh wilayah Yugoslavia, yang mana meneruskan kejayaan taktikal sambil meningkatkan perselisihan diplomatik.

Objectif utama serangan Belgrade ialah membebaskan pendudukan Jerman ke atas Serbia, menawan Belgrade sebagai satu kubu strategik di rantau Balkan, dan memutuskan talian komunikasi Jerman antara Greece dan Hungary. Penyerangan ini telah dipimpin oleh Barisan Ke-3 Ukraine Soviet dengan kerjasama Kor Pertama Yugoslavia. Operasi serentak di bahagian selatan melibatkan Tentera Darat Ke-2 Bulgaria dan Kor XIII Yugoslavia, dan pencerobohan Barisan Ke-2 Ukraine ke arah utara dari sempadan Yugoslav-Bulgaria memberi tekanan tambahan terhadap tentera Jerman. Terdapat beberapa pertembungan antara tentera Bulgaria dan rejimen anti-partisan Jerman di Macedonia yang mewakili kempen operasi tempur paling selatan.The Oxford companion to World War II, Ian Dear, Michael Richard Daniell Foot, Oxford University Press, 2001, , p. 134.
