The first wave of bombing occurred at 4:30 in the afternoon as a single German Dornier Do 17 dropped 12 50-kg bombs, with the most destructive wave starting at 6:30 p.m. with three bomber squadrons of three Junkers Ju52 planes carrying out heavy bombing for 15 minutes, followed by other airplanes strafing roads leading out of town.

Franco issued his decree from his capital at Burgos.[97] The salute, already used in Italy and Germany, was strictly used in Fascist rallies in insurgent-held Spain.
