"Much like the story of the Curse of King Tut,[10] a foul smell emitted from the tomb when it was opened, and the crew experienced technical difficulties: the lights went out but came back on and the electrician was unable to determine a cause.[9] Just a few days after the tomb was opened, Nazi Germany invaded the Soviet Union, leading to many people believing in the curse.[a][11]

Eventually word of the supposed curse reached Stalin[b] who ordered that a special transport aircraft be provided to return Timur to his tomb in Samarkand. In November 1942, Timur was reburied with Islamic rites. Five weeks later, not a few days as often claimed,[14] the Red Army experienced its first major victory by winning the Battle of Stalingrad, turning the tide of the war, which was credited to the lifting of the curse.
