What happened at the Fall of Saigon
The Fall of Saigon occurred on April 30, 1975, when North Vietnamese and Viet Cong troops entered Saigon, capital of the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam), leading to its surrender. In the preceding weeks, South Vietnamese resistance had collapsed as U.S. forces had withdrawn two years earlier under the Paris Peace Accords. The event triggered a chaotic evacuation, including the dramatic airlift of American personnel and Vietnamese civilians from the U.S. embassy by helicopter. The city was soon renamed Ho Chi Minh City, and Vietnam was reunified under communist rule the following year. The fall ended nearly two decades of war and prompted a large wave of refugees fleeing Vietnam.
