Explanation:

The Battle of Stalingrad (1942-1943) ended with a decisive Soviet victory over Nazi Germany. This defeat destroyed a large portion of Germany's military forces on the Eastern Front, halted their eastward advance, and marked the start of the Soviet Red Army's counteroffensive, shifting the momentum of World War II in favor of the Allied powers. The other options are incorrect: Germany did not win the battle, the battle had no direct link to North Africa, and it was a catastrophic, not minor, setback for Germany.

Answer:

Germany's defeat at Stalingrad was a turning point in the war.
