Answer
A
the D-Day invasion

the Battle of Stalingrad

Explanation

The Allied invasion of Italy in 1943 weakened Mussolini’s government and led the Fascist Grand Council and the king to remove him from power. D-Day, the Battle of the Bulge, and Stalingrad were major battles, but none directly caused Mussolini’s removal. The correct choice is the invasion of Italy.
