Operation Veritable, også kendt som Slaget om Reichswald, var en militær operation af den britiske 21. Armégruppe ledet af feltmarskal Bernard Montgomery under Anden Verdenskrig. Det var den nordlige halvdel af en tangbevægelse for at befri området mellem Rhinen og Rur. Operationen fandt sted mellem 8. februar og 11. marts 1945. De allierede tabte 23.000 soldater. Tyskerne havde 38.000 døde og sårede, og yderligere 52.000 tyskere blev taget til fange.
Den allierede øverstbefalende general Dwight Eisenhower havde besluttet, at det relativt flade Nordeuropa var den bedste rute til Tyskland. Dette betød, at allierede tropper skulle fremrykke over hele bredden langs hele Rhinen.
