After the German invasion of Hungary Regent Miklós Horthy remained as head of state. He continued negotiating with the Allies. Mid-October the Germans stepped in again: Operation Panzerfaust was set in motion, carried out by Otto Skorzeny. The Arrow Cross Party (Nyilaskeresztes Párt – Hungarista Mozgalom) gained power. Arrow Cross leader Ferenc Szálasi became prime minister of the Government of National Unity (Nemzeti Összefogás Kormánya). Arrow Cross militias carried out a reign of terror and the Hungarian Jews became the victim of forced labour, incarceration and murder. By the time Szálasi gained power the Red Army advanced into Hungary. After the Siege of Budapest and Operation Spring Awakening the Soviet conquest of Hungary was complete. The Arrow Cross Hungarista State was no more.
