The correct option is "2).They expected the Allies to invade farther north."
The battle of Normandy, code-named Operation Overlord, was the military operation carried out by the Allies during the Second World War that culminated in the liberation of the territories of Western Europe occupied by Nazi Germany. The operation began on June 6, 1944, better known as Day D, with the Normandy landings; the set of naval operations received the code name of Operation Neptune. An airborne assault carried out by one thousand two hundred aircraft preceded the amphibious landing, which involved five thousand ships. On June 6, one hundred and sixty thousand soldiers crossed the Channel from England to France and by the end of August the allied troops on French soil were more than three million.
The Allies were not able to achieve the objectives planned for the first day, but they did secure a precarious beachhead that they expanded tenaciously in the following days, with the capture of the port of Cherbourg on June 26 and the city of Caen on the July 21. The German counterattack of August 8 failed and left 50,000 soldiers of the VII Army of the Wehrmacht trapped in the so-called bag of Falaise. On August 15, the Allies launched an invasion of southern France, Operation Dragoon, and on August 25 the Liberation of Paris took place. German forces withdrew through the Seine river valley on August 30, marking the end of Operation Overlord.
