 The Germans were well stocked with food and ammunition and launched counter-attacks against the Red Army, leading to close fighting in and around the "Reichstag".Close combat raged throughout the night and the coming day of 1 May, until the evening when some German troops pulled out of the building and crossed the Friedrichstraße "S-Bahn" Station, where they moved into the ruins hours before the main breakout across the Spree.About 300 of the last German combatants surrendered.
