Burying Jewish corpses in the Lodz ghetto established in the city of Lodz, Poland, during the Eastern Front of World War II; residents were interned from April 30, 1940, and all residents were deported to concentration camps in August 1944.

　 Burying Jewish corpses in the Lodz Ghetto established in the Polish city of Lodz in World War II.The Germans occupied the Lodz Ghetto on September 8, 1939. The Lodz Ghetto remained in existence from April 30, 1940, when 163,777 residents were interned until August 1944, when all surviving ghetto residents were deported to concentration camps. 877 people.

　In the Warsaw Ghetto, from its founding until July 1942, some 92,000 people were killed or murdered. Many were buried in an unmarked Jewish cemetery on Okopova Street in Warsaw. Dozens of funerals were a daily occurrence, but on some days as many as 170 ghetto Jews died; between 1940 and 1944, an estimated 45,000 victims were buried in the plots. Many of the ghetto dead were buried in cemetery alleys or near family graves.

　The life of a Jew in the ghetto is a small one. In a very short time, the life of a ghetto Jew deviated from its usual course and changed the aspect of death. Death came with unimaginable speed. Life became strange, and death also became strange. Those who survived could know only a fraction of what the world was like. The question that recurs again and again is: who could tell the world how the Jews lived and died in the ghetto?

　I am not sure if there are any Jews living in the ghetto who could understand what it was like, and if there were, I am not sure if they would survive. Not everything that happens in the ghetto can be explained by war. We have witnessed war and know that artillery makes life look different. The basic elements of everyday life remain the same. There is an evolution of thought during war, morality cracks, but ethics remain. The rules of social life are not abolished. The family, the pillar of family life, does not disintegrate. There is an evolution of thought even during war, and this can be seen among the youth.

　 In the ghetto, everything is turned upside down. It is far removed from war itself. The ghetto has become overcrowded without a transitional period, creating an unbridgeable gap with the world. It cannot be fully explained by strict separation. For the Jews, the ghetto was a basic catastrophe. Jews could no longer die like everyone else. There is no longer any possibility of a noble end. The death of the Jewish people became an alien and ugly death.

The only four photographs of the area around the inky gas chambers where Jewish bodies were incinerated by the Sonderkommando at the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland were taken in August 1944.

　Jewish bodies are incinerated by Sonderkommando at the Auschwitz concentration camp in Poland in August 1944. When the crematorium's incinerator could not keep up with the workload of body disposal, a depression in the fenced area was used to incinerate the corpses. Having to hide inside the crematorium building, we had to hastily shoot through doorways and windows. This caused blurring and distorted angles. To take the picture, I had to hide inside the crematorium building and hastily shoot through the door cracks and windows. The black edges of the image were cropped and the position and shooting conditions were removed.

　The Sonderkommando photos were taken in August 1944 inside the Auschwitz concentration camp in German-occupied Poland, where four blurred photos were secretly taken. Along with several photographs in the Auschwitz Album, these are the only photographs of the events around the gas chambers. When the crematorium could not incinerate the bodies, they were burned. He immediately took out his camera, pointed it at the pile of burning corpses, and pressed the shutter .

　The photographer was a member of the Sonderkommando, the inmates who were forced to work in and around the gas chambers. Immediately after taking the picture, the photographer, Alberto Herrera, buried the camera in the soil of the camp. Shortly thereafter, he escaped, was arrested, tortured, and murdered. Later, Polish resistance fighters smuggled the film out of the concentration camp in toothpaste tubes. The note on the photograph was dated September 4, 1944.

　Sonderkommando was a working unit composed of prisoners from Nazi Germany's concentration camps. The Sonderkommando's main task was to dispose of the corpses. In accordance with SS policy, every three months, almost all Sonderkommando working in the killing areas of concentration camps were gassed and replaced by new arrivals to ensure confidentiality.

During the Russo-Ukrainian War, a dead Russian soldier lay on the road in Irpin, a town near the Ukrainian capital Kiev, on 1 March 2022, while Ukrainian residents walked beside him carrying water.

　　 Bodies of dead Russian soldiers lie on a road in Irpin (Irpin), a town near the Ukrainian capital Kiev, on 1 March 2022, during the Russo-Ukrainian War. Ukrainian residents carrying water walked next to the corpses of Russian soldiers scattered on Ukrainian streets. Morgues in various cities were overflowing with the corpses of Russian soldiers. The Ukrainian Government posted photos of dead Russian soldiers online on 2 March 2022.

　Ukrainian authorities published photos of gruesome corpses of Russian soldiers online to counter censorship by Russian Kremlin authorities. As the fighting continued to escalate, the photographic images were posted on various Telegram channels run by the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs and Security. The grisly photographs showed the mutilated corpses of Russian soldiers lying in a field, their muscles and organs side by side. Russian soldiers in camouflage uniforms lay frozen in the snow beside bombed-out Russian tanks and vehicles. The charred and bloodied remains of dead troop soldiers lay by the roadside.

　Days after the full-scale offensive began on 22 February 2022, the Russian military would not reveal how many of its own soldiers had been killed or taken prisoner. Russian military authorities stated that there had been some losses, but that the number was far less than the losses suffered by Ukrainian forces. The Russian Defence Ministry has reported the number of Russian servicemen killed only once since the beginning of the war: on 2 March, the Ministry announced that 498 Russian soldiers had been killed and 1,597 wounded in Ukraine.

Atomic Bombing Casualities

14468

On the Eastern Front of World War II, fighting erupted in densely populated areas during the Battle of Prokhorovka beginning July 11, 1943. The 44th Guards Tank Brigade Infantry of the Soviet Army, which suffered numerous battle casualties, stood by to support Soviet tanks in order to continue the offensive.

　　On the Eastern Front of World War II, fighting erupted in densely populated areas during the Battle of Prokhorovka beginning July 11, 1943. After suffering numerous battle casualties, the 44th Guards Tank Brigade Infantry of the Soviet Army stood by to continue the offensive, with Soviet tank support; the 44th Guards Tank Brigade Infantry fought to liberate nearby Ukraine from the Battle of Kursk and from German forces.

　In the summer of 1943, the German command planned a major offensive in the Kursk-Balge area. The Germans hoped to destroy Soviet forces in the Orel region and north of Kharkov, and from July 10 to 16 a major battle was fought in the Prokhorovka area.

　Part of the defensive battle of the Battle of Kursk was the largest tank battle ever fought in Prokhorovka. The Germans, convinced that it would be impossible to defeat the Soviet Red Army in the direction of Oboyansk, changed the direction of their main attack and began advancing on Kursk through Prokhorovka. The 2nd SS Panzer Tank Corps, including part of the German 3rd Panzer Tank Corps, invaded. The Soviets held off the Germans at a point 2 km from Prokhorovka. The first clashes of the Battle of Prokhorovka took place on the evening of July 11, and on the morning of July 12, the Soviet I Corps led four tank corps in an attack on the Germans. Two tank corps entered the Soviet 2nd Corps, located southwest of Prokhorovka. One of the largest anti-tank battles in history broke out between the railroad and the bend of the Pshol River. From the air the Germans were attacked by fighter planes. The ground was obscured by smoke and soot. In the battle of Prokhorovka, the quantity and quality of tanks fought head-to-head. The Germans could not break through Kursk, and the 5th Guards Tank Army could not reach the direction of Yakovlevo and could not defeat the Soviets. The road to Kursk was closed to the Soviet forces.

　The number of participants and casualties in the battle of Prokhorovka are still disputed. A total of approximately 1.2 thousand Soviet tanks were lost, about 800 Soviet tanks and 400 German tanks. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the Soviet Red Army lost about 670 tanks and 470 of its self-propelled artillery units that participated in the July 12 counterattack near Prokhorovka. The Germans lost 50 of their 490 tanks. About 35,000 Soviet Red Army soldiers were killed in the battle, and the German 2nd SS Tank Corps lost about 70,000 men. Over the next three days, the battle moved south of Prokhorovka, and the Germans attempted to break through the Soviet halo in the area between Seversky Donets and Lipovy Donets, but the German onslaught was held back.On July 16, the Germans called off their attack and began withdrawing toward Belgorod, and in the Battle of Kursk A decisive German retreat came.

On June 23, 1953, the victims of the East German Uprising that broke out on June 16 were buried in front of the City Hall in Schöneberg, West Germany. The victims of the uprising could only be mourned on the West German side.

　　Victims of the East German Uprising were buried in front of the City Hall in Schöneberg, West Germany, on June 23, 1953. The victims of the uprising could only be mourned on the West German side; the victims killed in the East German uprising that erupted from East Berlin from a demonstration by construction site workers on June 16, 1953, could only be mourned on the West German side. The East Berlin uprising grew into a widespread uprising against the East German government and the Socialist Unity Party on June 17, involving more than one million people in some 700 localities across the country. The East Berlin uprising was violently suppressed and put down on June 17 by Soviet tanks and East German Army Gendarmerie troops stationed in East Germany. Soviet troops arrived in Berlin at 10:00 a.m. on June 17, while in other parts of the GDR they arrived between noon and afternoon on June 17. The arrival of Soviet tanks caused the East German uprising to rapidly lose momentum.

　After the death of Joseph Stalin on March 5, 1953, the 1953 East German Uprising was suppressed by Soviet troops instead of freedoms, and instead of unity, only the East-West German split deepened. Citizens of the East German Democratic Republic who were taken away were sentenced to four to ten years in prison. It is not yet known how many civilians were massacred within the walls of the police station as a result of the sentences handed down by Soviet military tribunals.

　For many of those involved in the uprising, the most poignant disappointment was the inaction of the West. The Allies avoided adding fuel to the fire. As Soviet tanks drove through East Berlin, not a single American, British, or French soldier lifted a finger. President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Secretary of State John Foster Dulles of the U.S. government's declaration to "drive back, not contain, the Soviet forces" proved ill-advised, at least to the East German Democratic Republic.

　The fear of World War III paralyzed everyone: West Berlin Mayor Ernst Reuter, who was in Vienna on June 17, was denied even a seat on an American military plane to return to West Berlin. In West Berlin, Federal Minister for All German Affairs Jacob Kaiser called on the citizens of East Berlin to remain calm. Police units defended the borders of the western districts and tried to prevent West Berlin citizens from joining the demonstrations. He suggested how helpless West Germany was at the time.

The lacerated bodies of an Albanian refugee family from Kosovo, killed in the April 14, 1991 bombing by NATO forces in the village of Javitsa during the Kosovo conflict in the Balkans, lie beside a cart carrying a small cargo.

　　The lacerated bodies of an Albanian refugee family from Kosovo, killed in a NATO bombing in the village of Djakovica in the Kosovo conflict in the Balkans, lie beside a cart carrying a handful of goods, for two hours starting at 1:29 p.m. on April 14, 1999, during a NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, NATO forces bombed the village of Djakovica, 5 kilometers from Arbanija. Numerous refugees were killed and bodies scattered; NATO acknowledged that at least 64 people were killed and 20 wounded in airstrikes against refugees in western Kosovo on April 14.

　　During daylight hours on April 14, 1999, NATO warplanes repeatedly bombed the movement of Albanian refugees on a 19-km road between Djakovica and Dečani in western Kosovo. Human Rights Watch (HRW) documented alone that 73 civilians were killed and 36 injured. The attacks began at 1:29 p.m. and lasted for about two hours. Civilians were killed in numerous locations along the convoy route near the villages of Bistrazin, Gladys, Madanazi, and Mejia. Initially, NATO announced that fighter jets had targeted military vehicles. Later, the U.S. military reported that F-16 pilots bombed what they believed to be a military truck, prompting NATO to express "deep regret." Three Serb policemen were also killed in the attack.

　 The Kosovo Conflict Armed conflict erupted in Kosovo from February 28, 1998, to June 11, 1999. Yugoslav forces and the Kosovo Albanian Liberation Army fought. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) conducted an air campaign against Yugoslav forces during the Kosovo conflict, and the bombing campaign lasted from March 24 to June 10, 1999. The campaign ended with the withdrawal of Yugoslav forces from Kosovo. Yugoslav forces responded to the ethnic cleansing of the Albanian population, which NATO characterized as a humanitarian intervention, without UN authorization. The Yugoslav government estimated that more than 1,200 civilians, up to 2,500 people were killed and 5,000 wounded as a result of NATO airstrikes.

During the Battle of Iwo Jima in the Pacific War, a Japanese soldier was killed in action when he blew himself up while clutching a hand grenade. A Japanese soldier chose to commit suicide and exploded himself by placing a grenade against his body.

　　During the Battle of Iwo Jima in the Pacific War, a Japanese soldier was killed in action when he blew himself up while clutching a hand grenade. A Japanese soldier committed suicide by exploding a grenade against his body. In the last war, many Japanese died by suicide, and in 1941, Minister of War Hideki Tojo preached the battlefield precepts: "Live and do not suffer the shame of captivity," and Japanese soldiers faithfully followed this precept, refusing to be taken prisoner and choosing to commit suicide.

　On the night of February 23, the 300 survivors of the Japanese garrison on Mount Suribachi attempted to escape from their position to join the Japanese forces in the north. to join the Japanese forces in the north. However, 120 were killed and 120 were felled along the way. Only 25 were able to confirm that they had joined up with the 2nd Mixed Brigade of the main Japanese Army, and on February 24, they mercilessly hurled firebombs at Japanese soldiers hiding on the rocks.

　On February 23, fighting had begun early in the morning with American forces near Motoyama Airfield on Iwo Jima. The battle at Mount Suribachi had come to an end. The main battlefield had moved to Motoyama Airfield. The American forces, a large force of two divisions including eight artillery battalions, thoroughly attacked the Japanese forces on the line of Tako-iwa - Chidori village - Kirishima village - Nishi village and around Aso-dai. However, the Japanese garrison, led by the 2nd Brigade, barely stopped the advance of the U.S. infantry units. Around 3:00 p.m., the Americans began to entrench along the entire line.

　During the Battle of Iwo Jima, approximately 7,000 American soldiers were killed and 22,000 were wounded, about 90% of them seriously. In all, there were about 21,000 Japanese soldiers, of whom about 17,000 were killed in bombings and disease. About 30% of them, or about 5,000, were killed in battle. The remaining approximately 10% were shot from behind in surrender and killed because they were disliked by their superiors. About 60% committed suicide by bombing to death with grenades in a scorching hell with no water. In all, about 19,000 Japanese died in the war, and about 12,000 remains remain on Iwo Jima.

The bodies of murdered prisoners litter the courtyard of the Gensiowska (Gęsiówka) concentration camp on Gesia Street in Poland, which was liberated by Soviet troops on May 10, 1945, during World War II.

　 The bodies of murdered prisoners litter the courtyard of the Gensiowska (Gęsiówka) concentration camp on Gesia Street in Poland, which was liberated by the Soviet Army on May 10, 1945, during World War II. The Nazis carried out numerous executions in the prison courtyard. Groups of Jews, including displaced persons from Western European countries, were interned. The Nazis carried out numerous executions in the courtyards of the concentration camps.

　On November 15, 1940, in the building of the former military prison at 24 Gęsia Street, the Nazis established a central prison for the Jewish ghetto. The concentration camp consisted of several buildings and a wall around the perimeter. Jews and people of Roma descent were also interned. Its cells, with a capacity of 300 inmates, held up to 1,300 prisoners. In addition, the Nazis carried out numerous executions in the prison yard; from the spring of 1944, prisoners from the nearby Pavia Street prison, the so-called Paviak, were also executed in large numbers. Their bodies were burned on the spot. The first mass executions in the Warsaw Ghetto took place on the grounds of the Gesiowska concentration camp

　Gęsiówka, a colloquial name, was a former Polish Army military prison on Gęsia (Goose) Street in Warsaw, the capital of Poland. During the German occupation of Poland during World War II, it went from a German Security Police camp in 1939 to a Nazi concentration camp in 1943. During its period of operation, approximately 8,000 to 9,000 prisoners were interned and engaged in slave labor. Approximately 4,000 to 5,000 prisoners were murdered during death marches from the camp, during the Warsaw Uprising, and in hiding after the uprising.

　After World War II, from 1945-56, Gensiwka was used as a prison and labor camp, first by the Soviet NKVD to imprison Polish resistance fighters and opponents of Poland's neo-Stalinist regime, and later by the Polish communist secret police The Soviet Union's NKVD was the first to use the prison system. 

A mother was mourning the death of her five-month-old twin babies on Sunday in Rafah, after they died in an Israeli airstrike. It took 10 years and three rounds of in vitro fertilization for Rania Abu Anza to become pregnant with a boy and a girl.

   Five-month-old twin babies were killed in an Israeli airstrike on March 2, 2024 in Rafah city in the southern Gaza Strip, Palestine. Their mother, Rania Abu Anza, held the twins' bodies and wailed before their burial. She closed her eyes, leaned her head against the wall, and made a gesture of stroking the bundle. Israeli airstrikes struck her relatives' home in the southern Gaza city of Rafah late on March 2. Her children, her husband, and 11 other relatives were killed, and nine more were missing under the rubble.

　She woke up around 10 p.m. on March 2 to feed her male infant, Naeem, and fell asleep with him in one arm and her female infant, Wissam, in the other. Her husband was sleeping beside her. The explosion occurred an hour and a half later and the house collapsed. Of the 14 people killed in her home, six were children and four were women, according to the hospital where the bodies were taken. In addition to Rania's husband and children, her sister, nephew, pregnant cousin, and other relatives were killed. She cried and clutched her baby blanket to her chest. 'I cried out for my children and my husband. The Israeli army took the father and the children, left me behind, and they were all dead." She said. About 35 people stayed in the house, some having been evacuated from other areas. All were civilians, mostly children, and none were armed. Rania and her husband Wissam, both 29 years old, have been trying to conceive for 10 years, two IVF attempts failed, but after the third IVF, they found out they were pregnant in early 2023 and gave birth to twins on October 13.

　Israeli airstrikes have regularly struck crowded homes since the war in Gaza began, and although declared a safe zone by Israel in October, Rafah was also the target of a devastating ground assault. The bombing came without warning, in the middle of the night. Israeli forces deployed fighter jets, tunnels, and rocket launchers in the densely populated residential area. The Israeli military excused the harm to civilian Palestinians as being caused by the militant group Hamas. The Israeli military muted the attack, which killed a woman and a child, and said it had taken feasible precautions to mitigate civilian harm in accordance with international law.　

　On October 7, less than a week before she gave birth, Hamas-led militants launched a surprise attack in southern Israel, killing about 1,200 Israeli civilians and taking about 250 hostages, including children and newborns. Israel retaliated with a deadly and destructive military operation. According to Gaza's Ministry of Health, more than 30,000 Palestinians were killed in the war. About 80% of Gaza's 2.3 million people have been displaced from their homes, and a quarter of the population faces starvation.In February 2023, more than 12,300 Palestinian children and teenagers were killed in the war, accounting for about 43% of all casualties. Women and children accounted for three-quarters of the casualties. Women and children were the main victims, with 16,000 killed, according to the UN report. Israel showed no evidence of killing more than 10,000 Hamas fighters; until March 2, Rafah had escaped the enormous destruction of cities in northern and southern Gaza. Rafah was in a shrinking area of Gaza where humanitarian aid could reach, and Israeli forces were targeting Rafah next.

Twenty-five civilian residents of the Italian village of Condamari, Crete, men were shot to death on June 2, 1941. In retaliation, a German massacre squad rained bullets on the corpses of the village's young men, who died in vain.

  25 civilian residents of the Italian village of Kondamari, Crete, men shot dead on June 2, 1941. They were retaliating against the deaths of German soldiers. A system of mass means of violence was used by order of the German Wehrmacht High Command to carry out racial massacres everywhere in German-occupied Europe. German firing squads encamped on condemned prisoners. The corpses of young men from the village lay on the ground, and beyond them, German soldiers with rifles in their hands shot each corpse to death.

　The battle of Crete, which lasted about 10 days from May 20 to June 1, 1941, ended with the Axis forces retreating from the Allied forces. Shortly thereafter, the mutilated body of a German officer was discovered. The German retaliation against the Cretan population began on June 2 in the village of Kontomari in the provincial capital of Chania, with the execution and massacre of many German paratroopers, 25 men between the ages of 18 and 50, who were dropped in the bushes in an olive grove. It was the first massacre of civilians on the European front.

　 From the end of June 1941, racial extermination by the Nazi SS mobile massacre units (Einsatzgruppen) began; on July 8, 1941, Hitler declared that Moscow and Leningrad would be destroyed; on July 15, SS SS Obergruppenführer Meyer Hettling announced the Comprehensive Plan for the East, On July 17, he announced that about 30 million more Poles, Lithuanians, Belarusians, West Ukrainians, Estonians, Latvians, and Czechs were being deported or killed to make way for some 4.5 million German settlers. On July 17, the Gestapo, the Nazi secret state police, was ordered to go into hiding and kill dangerous prisoners of war; on July 23, the OKW ordered inhumane measures in the interior; on September 16, Wilhelm Keitel, commander-in-chief of the OKB, announced hostage-killing orders to shoot approximately 50 to 100 hostages for every one German soldier killed. On October 1, Keitel issued a hostage-killing order; on October 7, Alfred Jodl, OKW's Chief of Operations Staff, issued an order from the OKW to destroy Soviet cities; on October 21, approximately 7,000 hostages were killed in Kragujevac, Yugoslavia; on December 7, the OKW issued an order from Western Europe to the German Reich with orders for secret transports of opponents of the Nazi regime, an order of night and fog; on December 16 the OKW ordered that all means be used against women and children, without restriction. As winter set in, hundreds of thousands starved and starved to death in German-occupied Europe.

During the Battle of Iwo Jima in the Pacific War, Japanese soldiers were blown to pieces and killed by American shells. Their bodies were left on the sands of Iwo Jima, and corpses were piled up all over the battlefield.

　During the Battle of Iwo Jima in the Pacific War, Japanese soldiers were blown to pieces and killed by American artillery shells. The corpses of Japanese soldiers were left on the sands of Iwo Jima. Japanese dead bodies were piled up all over the battlefield of Iwo Jima. During the ground battle, Japanese soldiers were knocked down one after another by heavy U.S. artillery bombardment, and their murdered bodies were strewn about.

　After landing on Iwo Jima on February 19, 1945, the U.S. forces were the first to attempt to occupy Mount Suribachi. By the early morning of February 21, 40 U.S. warplanes bombed Japanese positions on Mount Suribachi. The Americans then attacked and the invasion began. By noon, the Japanese positions on the western side of Iwo Jima were recaptured. The Japanese garrison launched a massive flanking counterattack, and the battle line stalled. The Americans broke off the attack with the arrival of a single battalion of reinforcements. By 2:00 p.m., they had advanced about 500 meters. By evening, the Americans had encircled the western and northern sides of Iwo Jima's foothills.

　In the evening of February 21, 31 Japanese kamikaze suicide planes departed from Hachijojima, hitting the aircraft carrier Saratoga and the escort carriers Bismarck Sea and Lunga Point, among others. On the Saratoga, approximately 130 U.S. Navy personnel were killed in action. On the Bismarck Sea, a huge fire broke out, killing about 218 people. This was the last major suicide attack during the Battle of Iwo Jima.

　On February 22, the U.S. forces launched a campaign to occupy Mount Suribachi, burning to death Japanese soldiers in their bunkers. They used rock drills to open holes from the top of the caves, injected yellow phosphorus and gasoline, and repeatedly attacked with fire. Mount Suribachi was completely surrounded by evening, and the remaining Japanese forces were reduced to about 300 men. On the same day, February 22, there was another fierce battle near Motoyama Airfield. In the midst of heavy rain, the U.S. forces began rocket attacks after 8:00 a.m., expanding the battle front. At night, about 200 of the remaining Japanese troops retreated to the rear and encountered the Americans, who were annihilated and crushed under concentrated machine gun fire. The remaining Japanese soldiers at Won-San Airfield were killed when they rushed into a group of tanks with bombs strapped to their chests.

The bodies of two civilian Filipinos lay on a bed abandoned on the south bank of the Pasig River embankment during the Battle of Manila in the Pacific War. The bodies were carried to the bed, mortally wounded and breathless, and left there untouched.

 　　The bodies of two civilian Filipinos abandoned on a levee on the south bank of the Pasig River during the Battle of Manila in the Pacific War lie abandoned on a bed. They were caught up in the battle of Manila and died from a mortal wound, expired when they were brought to the bed, and their bodies were left lying there. Innocent Filipino civilians became casualties of the battle, and residents were killed by the chasm of small arms fire from all sides. Refusing to surrender, Japanese soldiers stubbornly defied the war until the very end. Due to the dramatic increase in casualties, American forces were ordered to fire artillery and mortars against the Japanese positions. The retreating Japanese, frustrated by their defeat and enraged by the Filipinos, razed homes, raped, tortured, and committed the Manila Massacre.

　Located on the southern bank of the Pasig River, Intramuros, a fortified area built by the Spaniards in the 16th century, is a district in the heart of Manila, the capital of the Philippines The Battle of Manila from February 3 to March 3, 1945, completely destroyed Intramuros. American tanks stormed into Intramuros, knocking down its stone gates. Japanese troops occupying Manila made a last stand against Allied soldiers and Filipino guerrillas. Cannon fire reduced Intramuros to ruins.

　Pushed back by American troops, the Japanese eventually retreated to the Intramuros area. To protect their positions, the Japanese pushed Filipino women and children to the front lines as human shields. Those who survived were killed by the Japanese. The heavy bombing killed about 16,665 more Japanese soldiers within Intramuros, while about 1,010 American troops and Filipino guerrillas were killed in action and 5,565 were wounded in action. Bombing leveled most of Intramuros, with 95% of the city's structures collapsing and 40% of its walls destroyed by bombing. The Battle of Manila and the Manila Massacre by the Japanese killed approximately 100,000 more Filipino men, women, and children.

Because chlorine gas is heavier than air, it sank into Allied trenches and positions. The French soldiers who died of poison gas belonged to the British Expeditionary Force commanded by Sir John French. After the defeats at Mons and Le Cateau, the British commanders retreated toward the Channel.

  On April 22, 1915, the Germans attempted to capture the Ypres Gorge, the Allied positions surrounding the Belgian town of Ypres. The Germans used poison gas for the first time to break the stalemate. The release of chlorine gas opened a hole in the battle line about 7 km wide. The effects were devastating, and stunned Allied troops fled in panic toward Ypres, where more than 10,000 men were gassed and about half were killed that day. The Germans underestimated the effectiveness of the poison gas in opening the breach. They were unable to secure reserve troops to exploit the gap created by the gas cloud or to support the infantry units that followed the gas cloud. The Germans, who had advanced about 2 km, were checked by a hasty Allied counteroffensive operation. The fighting at Ypres continued until May 27, 1915, when poison gas was repeatedly used. The Germans reduced the size of the Allied trenches. The battle resulted in 70,000 Allied casualties and 35,000 German casualties.

　During World War I, it was almost taboo to describe soldiers killed in action. The exception was photographs of the corpses of enemy soldiers of the Allied Forces who had died in battle. These photographs were sent to the German home country as motifs for postcards.

In the Spanish Civil War, a mother grieves over the body of what she believes to be her murdered son on the streets of Castellón on August 8, 1938. After defeating the Republican forces on the Aragon front, the Nationalist army moved south and began the Valencia offensive in April 1938.

 　　During the Spanish Civil War (July 17, 1936-April 1, 1939), a mother grieves over the body of what she believes to be her murdered son on the streets of Castellón on August 8, 1938. There was a period of confusion before the Nationalist troops marched into Castellón de la Plana, the provincial capital of Castellón. Retreating Nationalist soldiers prematurely killed hundreds of people who tried to greet them, believing them to be liberators. The son of one of the victims was one of those killed.

　During the Spanish Civil War, the Nationalist forces that had defeated the Republican forces on the Aragon front moved south and attempted to capture Valencia from April to July 1938. in the Levante Offensive that broke out from April 25 to July 24, 1938, the Nationalist forces led by Francisco Franco attempted to capture Valencia, which was controlled by the Republican forces. The Nationalist army fought for several days. After several days of fighting, the Nationalist forces occupied the province of Castellón, north of Valencia, on June 13. The Nationalist offensive was frustrated by bad weather and the Republican Army's persistent resistance on the XYZ defense line. The Nationalist forces captured Castellón Province, but failed to capture Valencia, suffering heavy casualties. The Republican forces suffered 5,000 casualties while the Nationalist forces suffered approximately 20,000 casualties.

　The Argon offensive by the Nationalist forces began on March 7, 1938 and ended on April 19. The Aragon Offensive ended on April 15, 1938, when the Nationalist forces captured the town of Vinalos on the Mediterranean coast, bisecting Republican territory and isolating Catalonia from the central region. It was a fatal blow to the Republican army, which could no longer fully recover. The Argon offensive of the Nationalist army was accompanied by an intensive bombing campaign against the towns and cities of Valencia and Catalonia. Strategic objectives were achieved and civilians were terrorized.

On January 21, 2024, Ukrainian forces shelled the Russian-controlled territory of Donetsk in Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine. Autopsies were performed to identify the bodies of the victims killed in the shelling.

 　　On January 21, 2024, Russian authorities in Donetsk announced that Ukrainian forces had shelled the Russian-controlled territory of Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine. A Donetsk citizen performed an autopsy on the identity of the body of a victim killed in the shelling. Donetsk authorities announced that at least 28 people were killed and 30 wounded, including two children, in shelling of the Russian-occupied Donetsk market. The attack from Ukrainian forces struck the Donetsk city suburb of Tekstyrshik on January 21, 2024. The mayor of Donetsk, who is of Russian descent, said the shells were fired by Ukrainian forces. The Ukrainian troops hit a downtown area with stores and markets on the outskirts of Tekstyrshchik. People who had lost relatives wept, and bodies were scattered near the city's markets, lying in the snow.

　Ukrainian authorities in Kiev had no comment on the shelling. The shells that hit the Donetsk area were fired from the Krakow and Krasnohorivka areas to the west. Russian officials said they categorically condemn the treacherous attacks against civilians as terrorist attacks.In the nearly two-year-long Russo-Ukrainian war, in which frontline positions covering some 1,500 km have remained largely unchanged, both sides have increased their reliance on long-range attacks since the winter of 2024.

　UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said that international humanitarian law "strongly condemns all attacks against civilians and civilian infrastructure, including the shelling of the Ukrainian city of Donetsk." Officials in Kiev said Russian forces fired about 500 or more drones and missiles into Ukraine between December 29 and January 2.

A child was born in April 1946 to a mother who became pregnant shortly before the bombing after the Hiroshima atomic bomb was dropped. The mother was exposed to the bomb 1.4 km from the hypocenter and received burns that formed keloids and was examined at the Hiroshima Hospital for Disaster Relief.

During the Irish Civil War, he was treated by the Free Irish Army Medical Corps for victims of the anti-Treaty attack at the Battle of Bully in the vicinity of Kilmallock on July 30, 1922.

    Victims of the Battle of Bully in the vicinity of Kilmallock on July 30, 1922, are treated by a Free Irish Army medical unit during the Irish Civil War, which began with the signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty on December 6, 1921, and lasted from June 28, 1922, to May 24, 1923. Approximately more than 1,000 Irishmen lost their lives. The pro-treaty, Free State forces accepted the status of the British Dominion. The anti-treaty forces, the anti-treaty forces, saw the compromise as a betrayal.

　The Battle of Kilmallock, one of the largest battles in the Irish Civil War, broke out in County Limerick, Ireland, between July 25 and August 5, 1922. The battle unfolded over ten days of fighting in the surrounding countryside. As the Free State forces moved south from County Limerick, fighting in the villages of Bruff, Bully, and Patrickswell ended with the withdrawal of the Anti-Treaty forces and the capture of Kilmallock by the Free State forces.

　Initially the Anti-Treaty forces had the upper hand, but on July 23 the Free State forces occupied Bruff and began their advance to Kilmallock. Twice repulsed by the resistance of the Anti-Treaty forces, on July 24 the Anti-Treaty forces recaptured Bruch in a counterattack, taking 76 prisoners. In frustration, the Free State Army halted its advance and waited for reinforcements.

　The Free State forces recaptured Bruch soon after the reinforcements arrived. With the anti-Treaty forces' war situation worsening, the capture of the anti-Treaty strongholds was not progressing, and casualties were mounting. The Free State's Dublin Guards, supported by armored vehicles and field artillery, attacked the town of Bulley from the southeast. About 13 Free State soldiers and 9 Anti-Treaty soldiers were killed in action and many more wounded as the Free State forces secured Bulley.

　On August 2, the Anti-Treaty forces captured Patrickswell, south of Limerick. Armored cars ambushed the Free State forces and attacked Bully. An armored car attacked the Free State Army headquarters at the railroad hotel; a second armored car raided another garrison and persuaded the 25 anti-treaty troops inside to surrender.

　When reinforcements arrived for the armored vehicles and the Free State forces, the counterattack by the anti-treaty forces stalled. The Free State commander led the reinforcements and commanded his troops from an armored car. Unable to secure the surrender of Bully, the anti-treaty forces withdrew. The Irish Civil War was ultimately won by the Free State forces, who captured all city centers by late August 2023.

In June 1906, Jews were murdered in Bialystok, Poland, when a pogrom, a mass assault, broke out. Jews and others gathered around the bodies of the Jewish victims to mourn.

　　In June 1906, Jews were murdered in Bialystok, Poland, when a pogrom, a mass assault, broke out. Fellow Jews gathered around the bodies of the Jewish victims to mourn. The pogroms were outbreaks of mass violence directed against minority religious, ethnic, and social groups.

　The Belostok (Białystok) pogrom broke out on June 14-16, 1906, in Białystok, then part of the Russian Empire in Poland. At the pogrom, about 81-88 Jews were murdered by soldiers of the Imperial Russian Army, the Black Hundred, and the Chernoye Znamir, and about 80 were wounded.In the 1880s and 1890s, after the assassination of Russian Emperor Aleksandr II, a series of targeted pogroms of Russian Polish Jews mass massacres had broken out. Białystok became one of a series of assaults on Jews that occurred between 1903 and 1908, including pogroms in Kishinev, Odessa, and Kiev before and after.

　Anti-Semitic violence was bandied about as a collective assault during the Russian Revolution of 1905-1907. Identifying the Jews with the revolution, the organization of the Russian People's Union was later formally organized. Loyalist groups, dubbed the Black Hundred, attacked Jews and other groups of questionable loyalty, such as students and rural teachers. Hundreds of Jews were killed in counterrevolutionary riots in Odessa and Kiev. Both civilian and military authorities were widely accused of inaction and passivity in the pologram affair.

　Sporadic violence continued after the Russian Revolution. The cruelest was a pogrom in Białystok, Kingdom of Poland, on June 1 (June 13), 1906, in which more than 70 people were killed and self-defense by the Jews increased, organized by the revolutionary party of Bund, which was at odds with the authorities. The attribution of responsibility for the Pogrom incident was complicated. The Russian government, for its part, decided that the pogroms in Gomel and Bialystok were Jewish pogroms and an attack by Jews against Christians.

The Japanese positions at the foot of Guadalcanal Island were attacked by U.S. artillery fire. The bodies of Japanese soldiers killed in action were scattered around the Japanese positions. The Japanese response was slowed by the reinforcement of the Allied forces, resulting in increased losses.

　The Japanese positions at the foot of Guadalcanal Island were attacked by U.S. artillery fire. The bodies of Japanese soldiers killed in action were scattered around the Japanese positions. The Japanese response was slowed by the Allied buildup and losses mounted, and on August 7, 1942, U.S. forces made the first amphibious landing on Guadalcanal Island in World War II. Occupying Henderson Airfield, the Americans stopped the Japanese from cutting off supply routes, and after seven major naval battles, numerous clashes on land, and constant dogfights, the Americans occupied Guadalcanal Island on February 7, 1943, after six months of fighting.

　U.S. forces first landed on Guadalcanal Island in the Solomon Islands on the morning of August 7, 1942. U.S. Marines swept through Tulagi and Florida by August 9. On their way inland to secure airfields, they met no resistance from the Japanese. Shortly thereafter, Japanese naval aircraft attacked transports and convoys, and Japanese reinforcements arrived. The battle for control of Guadalcanal and its vital airfields and sea control lasted several months, with losses of men, ships, and aircraft on both sides.

　The battle for Guadalcanal was accompanied by difficult jungle terrain, bad weather, lack of infrastructure, starvation, and tropical diseases. Japanese soldiers fighting to the death were the first American troops to experience this in the Pacific theater of war. Japanese forces were assembled for a general offensive that began in October 1942. A furious Japanese offensive broke out against the U.S. forces, who had reinforced their defenses at Henderson Airfield. The Japanese began their attack on October 23, 1942, attacking several positions around the airfield over a four-day period. American losses were heavy, and Japanese losses were catastrophic.

　As fighting continued on Gadarkanal Island, the Japanese withdrew the last of their forces and surrendered Ganarkanal Island to the Allied forces on February 7, 1943. The Solomon Islands campaign cost the Allies approximately 7,100 men, 29 ships, and 615 aircraft. The Japanese lost 31,000 men, 38 ships, and 683 aircraft. Over the next two and a half years, the Americans gained more and more advantage as they took more and more Pacific islands from the Japanese. Each time the U.S. forces clashed with the Japanese death squads, they were forced to fight long and hard, and eventually the Japanese soldiers were crushed and defeated in the Pacific islands.
