In the Spartacist uprising, on September 3, 1919, fighting broke out in public places in the streets of Berlin between the German government army and the Spartacists, and the dead, the injured, and the dead collapsed in the street.

　　On September 3rd 1919, during the Spartacist uprising that followed Germany's defeat in World War I, there was fighting in public places in the streets of Berlin between the security forces of the German government and the Spartacists. People were shot dead in the streets, and the streets were strewn with bodies. The fighting, which resulted in many deaths, left the dead, injured and dying lying in the streets.

　　In January 1919, the Spartacus Revolution took a decisive and violent turn. After the Spartacus uprising broke out in Berlin and the coalition government of the SPD and USPD collapsed, the uprising flared up in the capital city of Berlin. On January 5th, the Spartacus League incited revolutionary workers and soldiers to revolt and declared the dissolution of the People's Deputies Assembly. Left-wing extremists occupied a publishing house in Berlin and formed a revolutionary committee. After negotiations with the People's Representative Assembly broke down, Gustav Noske, the Minister of Defense of the Weimar Republic, ordered the German Imperial Army to suppress the rebellion. The Imperial Army strengthened its position through ruthless street fighting, which resembled a civil war in Germany. The violence of the Spartacus Rebellion did not end with defeat. As part of a political cleansing operation, the Weimar army and the Freikorps searched every working-class district in Berlin to find and intern revolutionary workers.

　　After the cleansing operation, the Spartacist leaders Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht were arrested, interrogated and shot. The uprising was suppressed throughout Germany. The military power of the Communist Party was dealt a devastating blow within Germany. Despite the uprisings and threats from both left and right, the Ebert government and its successor, the Weimar government, continued until the 1930s, when the fascists of Nazism rose to power.

In October 1910, a young man was killed by the Taiwanese highland aborigines in Taito-cho, Taito-gun, when they decapitated him as part of a “decapitation” ceremony. The body and head of the young man were separated.

   In October 1910, young men were killed by the Taiwanese highland aborigines in Taito-cho, Taito-gun, when they decapitated their enemies in a “decapitation” attack. The corpses of the young men were decapitated, and their limbs were bound with iron wire and steel wire. When Japan used its power as the ruling authority to forcibly suppress the Taiwanese mountain tribes, who had completely different lifestyles, conflict broke out.

    The Taiwanese mountain tribes carried out headhunting, which they called “de-cao”. They would lie in wait for their enemies and shoot them dead with guns, or they would fight them and take them down. After that, they would sever their enemies' heads with a crude sword. The mountain tribespeople would collect the severed heads and display them on a shelf. The mountain tribespeople who went out to “cut off heads” were respected as brave men in their villages.

    In 1895, Japan, having won the First Sino-Japanese War, took over Taiwan from China and began to rule it. Based on the classification system used during the Qing Dynasty, Japan divided the indigenous people into the “Pingpu” and “Koushan” tribes. The aborigines also became guerrillas in the anti-Japanese resistance movement. The Beipu Incident occurred in 1907, and the Wusha Incident broke out in 1930. In 1935, at the request of Prince Chichibu Yoshinobu, the name of the high mountain tribe was changed to “Takasago”. Japanese language functioned as a common language between the tribes of Taiwan, which had different languages. The Japanese Governor-General's Office implemented a policy of land expropriation and assimilation through police force against the Taiwanese aborigines, who were referred to as “savage tribes” under the “unowned land” theory.

      They are a minority group that accounts for about 1.9% (as of 2001) of the total population of about 22.34 million in Taiwan. The Taiwanese society is made up of about 19% aborigines out of the total population of about 22.34 million, with the majority being Han Chinese. The mountain aborigines lived in the mountains, farming and hunting, with their own unique culture. However, in recent years, due to coexistence with the majority Han Chinese, there has been an increase in migration to urban areas due to mountain development and the introduction of capitalism, and changes have occurred in their way of life and culture.

 

The Soviet Red Army fought against the rebels in the fortress of Kronstadt on Kotlin Island in the Gulf of Finland, and it became a hand-to-hand battle. On the morning of March 18th, the island was placed under the control of the Red Army.

　　 On the night of March 16-17, 1921, the final attack by 50,000 Soviet Red Army troops began against the uprising that had broken out on March 7 in the Russian port city of Kronstadt. Trotsky's main force of Red Army troops attacked from the south, from Oranienbaum and St. Petersburg. The garrison numbered between 12,000 and 14,000 men, of whom 10,000 were sailors and the rest infantry. The Red Army approached the fortress on Kotlin Island in the Gulf of Finland, and fighting broke out, with hand-to-hand combat. By the morning of March 18, the island was under Communist control. Hundreds of mutinous prisoners were massacred. Some of the defeated mutineers, including their leaders, escaped.

　　The crews of the battleships Petropavlovsk and Sevastopol fought to the last man, as did the cadets of the engineering school, the torpedo detachment and the communications unit. 6,528 mutineers were arrested, 2,168 (33%) were shot, 1,955 were sentenced to forced labor, of which 1,486 were given five-year sentences, and 1,272 were released. A statistical survey of the 1935-6 uprising put the number of arrests at 10,026. The families of the rebels were deported, and Siberia was seen as the only suitable place of exile.

　　The Soviet army suffered over 10,000 casualties in the attack on Kronstadt. The number of dead rebels and those shot by the Cheka and sent to the gulag is unknown. Immediately after the defeat of the mutiny, 4,836 Kronstadt sailors were arrested and exiled to the Crimea and the Caucasus. Lenin sent them to forced labor camps on April 19th. 8,000 sailors, soldiers and civilians escaped to Finland on the ice. The Finnish government later asked the Soviet Red Army to remove the thousands of bodies lying on the frozen bay.

In 1943, the bodies of those killed by the German army were recovered from the mines in Kadiufka. On July 12, 1942, the German army occupied Kadiufka in the Donbas region of Ukraine.

　In 1943, the bodies of those killed by the German army were recovered from the mines in Kadiufka. On July 12th 1942, during the Second World War, the German army occupied Kadiufka in the Donbas region of Ukraine.

　In 1942, the Soviet Union's military and government forces withdrew from Kadiivka. After that, the town of Kadiivka was invaded and came under the control of the German army. During the German occupation, individual partisans, including partisan units, fought against the German occupying forces in Kadiivka. After being liberated from the German army, the town returned to its original name of Kadiufka, which it retained until 1978.

　In the Russian settlement of Stalino, in the Donbass, the German army killed 13,854 civilians and 10,260 Soviet prisoners of war on April 4 and 5, 1943. The majority of these killings were carried out by the German army and its allies. During the Donbas Operation (August 13 - September 22, 1943), the Soviet army carried out a strategic military operation to liberate the Donets Basin from Nazi Germany. The Soviet army suffered 273,500 casualties. The casualties of the German army are unknown.

　Due to the Russo-Ukrainian War that broke out on February 24, 2022, the Russian military invaded Ukraine and launched a military offensive in the Donbass region from April 18, 2022. The Russian army invaded, surrounded the Ukrainian army in Donbass, and on April 29th, annexed the entire Donetsk and Luhansk regions to the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) and Luhansk People's Republic (LPR), which are separatist states supported by pro-Russian factions.

During the Battle of Okinawa, a battle that took place on May 10th 1945, American Marine Corps soldiers were killed by the Japanese army during the battle to cross the Aja River. After this, the dead bodies of the Marines were carried away on stretchers and placed on Amtrak trains.

　During the Battle of Okinawa, American Marine Corps soldiers were killed by the Japanese Army during the battle to cross the Aja River on May 10th 1945. The bodies of the dead Marines were then transported on stretchers and placed on Amtrak trains.

　　Early on the morning of May 10th, the American army crossed the Aja River to the west of Uchima and moved south. The bridge demolition unit dispatched from the Japanese army's Independent 2nd Battalion, which was in charge of defending the area, successfully blew up the bridge, preventing the American army from crossing the river. The bridge demolition unit suffered one casualty, a Japanese soldier. The Japanese army's Independent 2nd Battalion worked to stop the invading American army. Gradually, the American military forces were reinforced, and by the evening of May 10, the American military had occupied the east-west line of the Aja village. The Japanese military also came under strong attack in the Uchima area. The Japanese military secured the high ground to the northeast of Uchima and prevented the American military from advancing.

　　From the night of May 10th to the early hours of May 11th, the US Army Corps of Engineers built a pontoon bridge over the Aja River in the midst of heavy gunfire, and the tanks and heavy artillery of the US Army's support units crossed the river. From the high ground of Shuri in Okinawa, the Aja coast was in full view. The Japanese Army continued to fire from the artillery positions in the hills to the west of Shuri. The Japanese infantry also resisted the American forces fiercely in coordination with the artillery. Even in the midst of the Japanese artillery fire, the Marines advanced. An American battalion climbed to the top of a hill 800 meters south of Aja, but the Japanese defenses were strong, and in the end all the American soldiers were killed or wounded, with the exception of one flamethrower operator.

　　　The Japanese army's position, built on the hills to the north of the fierce battleground of Azato, was called “Suribachi Hill” by the Japanese army and “Sugar Loaf” by the Americans. The hills in the area were a key point in the Japanese army's defense of Shuri, and fierce battles were fought with the US 6th Marine Division. In particular, the battle for Kerama was a fierce battle that saw the summit repeatedly change hands four times in a single day between May 12th and May 18th, 1945, and the Americans finally gained control on May 18th. The American military suffered 2,662 casualties and 1,289 cases of post-traumatic stress disorder in the Battle of Sugar Loaf. The number of casualties among the Japanese military is unknown, but there were many casualties among the student corps and local residents.

The 25-year-old woman still had a deep scar on the spot where she had received a laceration from flying glass when the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima on April 23, 1947.

In the Gaza Strip, Palestine, during the Israel-Palestine War, Al Jazeera journalist Ahmad Baker Al-Ruhu (right) and three members of the Civil Defense were killed in an Israeli air strike on December 15, 2024.

　 In the Israel-Palestine war, Al Jazeera journalist Ahmad Baker Al-Ruhu (right) and three members of the Civil Defense were killed in an Israeli air strike in the Gaza Strip on December 15, 2024. Al-Ruhu was wearing a helmet and a waistcoat for the press. At the funeral held in Nuseirat, Gaza Strip, on December 16, mourners prayed in front of the body of the man who had been killed in the Israeli air strike the day before.

　　According to Al Jazeera, Ahmad Baker al-Ruhu, 39, was killed while documenting the rescue of family members injured in a previous explosion. According to a report published last week by the International Federation of Journalists, more than half of the 104 journalists and media workers killed in 2024 died in Gaza. Three members of the civil defense, including the local head of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, were also killed in the attack, according to a report from the hospital. The Hamas-run government oversees the civil defense, Gaza's main rescue organization. The Israeli military said the airstrike targeted Islamic Jihad and Hamas terrorists in a command center inside the civil defense headquarters. A journalist colleague in Gaza refuted al-Ruh's accusation of Islamic Jihad membership.

　　The Palestinian health ministry updated the death toll in the Gaza Strip to 45,028 on December 16. It warned that the real number of casualties was likely to be much higher, as 106,962 people had been injured since the war began and thousands of bodies were buried under the rubble in places where medics could not reach them. The ministry's figures do not distinguish between combatants and civilians, but women and children account for more than half of the dead. Without any evidence, the Israeli military claims to have killed more than 17,000 terrorists. The dead represent about 2% of Gaza's pre-war population of just over 2.3 million, the worst toll in the conflict between Israel and Hamas.

Warning: Mourners pray in front of the body of Al Jazeera journalist Ahmad Baker Al-Louh (R) and members of the Civil Defence, who were killed in an Israeli strike the day before, during their funeral in Nuseirat(AFP)

During the Battle of Okinawa in mid-June 1945, a member of the Tekketsu-Kinko-tai, a group of teenage boys who had been injured and were close to death, was dragged out of a cave near Mabuni by the US Army during a mopping-up operation.

     During the Battle of Okinawa in mid-June 1945, a member of the Tekketsu-Kin'ōtai, a group of teenage boys who had been injured and were on the verge of death, was dragged out of a cave near Mabuni by American soldiers. A seriously injured member of the Tekketsu-Kin'ōtai was dragged out of a cave by American soldiers. The Tekketsu-Kin'ōtai was incorporated into a regular unit during the Battle of Okinawa, and actually participated in combat, resulting in many casualties.

  The Tekketsu-Kinko-tai was the first unit of young soldiers in Japanese military history, made up of students aged 14 to 16, who were mobilized for defense conscription in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan, at the end of World War II. The defense conscription, which was different from the “wait for orders” system, was based on a revision of the Army Ministry Ordinance in October 1942, and during the wait for orders, they were engaged in civilian work and were only called up to defend the country when necessary. In Okinawa, where the arrival of the Allied forces was imminent, boys aged between 14 and 17 were called up for national defense as the Tekketsu Kin'o-tai. Students from the Okinawa Normal School were assigned to the 32nd Army Headquarters, and were divided into the Chihaya-tai, which was in charge of intelligence work, the Senjo Chikujotai, which was responsible for digging trenches and repairing roads and bridges that had been destroyed by bombing, and the Zankotai, which was in charge of guarding the headquarters bunker.

   The Iron Blood Loyalist Corps of Okinawa's teenage youth suffered tragic and enormous losses. During the war, there were 12 boys' junior high schools and 10 girls' schools in Okinawa. All of the students in these schools were mobilized to the front lines under close supervision by the Okinawa Defense Force, the prefectural authorities, and the school authorities, and the majority of them were killed. More than 1,786 male students were mobilized into the military, and more than 921 of them were killed in action. Of the 735 female students, 296 were killed. Teenage boys and girls were sent to the front without any legal basis. Teenage boys and girls in Okinawa were sent to the front without any legal basis. The “Volunteer Soldiers Act” was promulgated and came into force on the 23rd of June, the day after the leaders of the Okinawa Defense Force Headquarters committed suicide on the 22nd of June 1945. It became possible to send men from the Japanese mainland aged between 15 and 60, and women aged between 17 and 40, to the front as combatants.

 

During the Russian Civil War, the bodies of prisoners who had been injured and poisoned by the White Army's Denikin forces were scattered around before the White Army withdrew from Bakhmut in Ukraine in 1919.

　　During the Russian Civil War, the bodies of prisoners who had been poisoned by the White Army's Denikin forces lay scattered around the town of Bakhmut in Ukraine before the White Army withdrew in 1919. The bodies of the injured prisoners had been mutilated and cut up. The White Army was an armed force of the anti-Bolshevik government that fought against the Red Army of Soviet Russia during the Russian Civil War.

　　In Luhansk, in the Donbas region of Ukraine, the Cheka (Soviet secret police) killed all the former officers they found in the town. Engineers and technicians were assaulted by workers. When the White Army retreated, the workers attacked the engineers and technicians. Even those who sympathized with the Soviet government attacked them, saying that it was time for revenge. Many tragic deaths resulted. The Soviet government also did not fully trust the engineers and technicians who had sided with the White Army. In December 1919, half of the mining experts fled the Donbass region with the defeated White Army. In Kamensk, east of Luhansk, the bodies were left in the streets for several days.

　　White terror in Russia refers to the systematic violence and mass killings carried out by the White Army during the Russian Civil War (1917-1923). It began after the Bolsheviks seized power in November 1917 and continued until the White Army was defeated by the Red Army. The White Army, supported by the Triple Entente, fought against the Bolshevik forces, while the Bolsheviks concentrated on their own Red terror. It is estimated that a total of around 300,000 people died as a result of this series of organized acts of violence. After Kornilov was killed in April 1918, leadership of the volunteer army passed to Anton Denikin.

From around 1917, at the beginning of the Russian Revolution, and due to the famine in Russia, in 1921, the bodies of children who had starved to death were piled up at the 138th collection point and loaded onto carts.

　　 From around 1917, at the beginning of the Russian Revolution, and due to the famine in Russia, in 1921, the bodies of children who had starved to death were piled up in the Samara region and loaded onto carts at the 138th collection point. Around 5 million people died from the famine, and the Volga and Ural River regions were mainly affected.

　　In May and June 1921, Lenin ordered the purchase of food from abroad. This was to feed the city dwellers, not the peasants, as the famine could have political repercussions. In June 1921, Lenin said that a “dangerous situation” was underway as a result of the famine. Lenin used the famine as an excuse to launch an attack on the Russian Orthodox Church. In July 1921, Zhuravinsky warned the Cheka that the threat of counterrevolution was imminent in the famine-stricken areas and ordered strict preventive measures. The media were forbidden to mention the crop failure at all, and even in early July they continued to report that everything was fine in the countryside. The Bolshevik leaders were keen to avoid any obvious connection with the famine. Kalinin, the Kremlin's ambassador to the peasants, was the only person to visit the affected areas. On August 2, 1921, when the famine had reached its worst, Lenin addressed the “international proletariat”. In it, he pointed out that “in some Russian provinces, there is a famine that is only slightly inferior to the misery of 1891”.

　　The Russian famine of 1921-1922 was a severe famine in the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic. The famine was exacerbated by the economic chaos caused by the Russian Revolution, a severe drought, and the failure of government policy in the aftermath of World War I, as well as a railway system that was unable to efficiently distribute food. The famine led many people to resort to cannibalism. Epidemics of cholera and typhus were also among the casualties of the famine.

During the Second Shanghai Incident, on October 15th 1937, a naval landing force of the Japanese army invaded a Chinese army position on Beixiang Road in Shanghai, and in a fierce hand-to-hand battle, a naval landing force soldier was killed and fell on his back.

　　During the Second Shanghai Incident, on October 15th 1937, the Japanese Navy's Landing Force invaded the Chinese army's position on Sichuan Road in the north of Shanghai, and a fierce hand-to-hand battle broke out. A Japanese soldier from the Navy's Landing Force was killed and fell on his back. Around him, Chinese soldiers' steel helmets and grenades were scattered on the ground.

　　The Marco Polo Bridge Incident broke out on July 7th 1937 in the suburbs of Beijing, and on July 27th the Japanese government decided for the third time to send troops to the mainland, and on July 28th the following day full-scale military operations were launched on the ground, and about three weeks had passed since the Marco Polo Bridge Incident. It spread throughout China and plunged into a full-scale war between Japan and China. The Second Shanghai Incident broke out on August 13th 1937, triggered by the shooting of Captain Isamu Oyama of the Shanghai Naval Special Landing Force and the protection of residents. At the request of the local Kwantung Army, the policy of not expanding the front of the Sino-Japanese War was abandoned. The Chinese army adopted a retreating strategy and consistently avoided decisive battles. If the Chinese army avoids decisive battles, then there can be no conclusion. By invading in pursuit of a decisive battle, the Japanese army expanded the battlefield to areas in China that had not been expected at the outset.

　　At a cabinet meeting on August 13th 1937, the Japanese government decided to send two divisions to Shanghai to protect the Japanese military and Japanese residents. In September, three more divisions were sent to Shanghai, and in October, three more divisions were sent in succession. On November 5, the Japanese army carried out a surprise landing at Antungwan, and the Chinese army was completely defeated, bringing the Second Shanghai Incident to an end. On December 1, the Imperial General Headquarters ordered an attack on Nanjing as the Chinese army retreated, and Nanjing fell on December 13. The Japanese army's advance into Nanjing expanded the area of the battle, and the capture of Nanjing, the capital of China, did not lead to peace. The Sino-Japanese War was in full swing. By September 29, the number of Japanese military casualties in North China was about 8,600, while on the Shanghai front, the number was about 12,300, and by November 8, it had reached about 40,700.

In November 1943, the German army carried out a large-scale sweep of the French resistance fighters hiding in the Champollion Valley. The German soldiers smiled as they looked down on the scattered bodies of the dead.

　　On September 8th 1943, on the Western Front of World War II, the German army arrived in Champelion. The German army had sensed that the French Resistance was entrenched and hiding in the Champelion Valley, and in particular in Champelion. In November 1943, the German army carried out a major sweep of the Champelion Valley. The number of executions of French resistance fighters by the Germans increased, and the bodies of the murdered French resistance fighters lay scattered about. The German soldiers looked down on the bodies of the French resistance fighters and smiled. The Mayol house in Gap became a scene of interrogation and torture.

　　On June 24th 1940, France surrendered to Germany and a truce was signed. In response to the Allied landing in North Africa from November 11th 1942, the German army invaded Free France from November 11th 1942 in order to prevent the landing of the Allied forces in the Provence region in southern France. The German army was supported by several French collaborators. In December 1943, the German military police (Gestapo) intervened and executed them after receiving a tip-off about the betrayal. The German army, which arrived in Chansol, increased the number of killings of the French resistance through summary executions. They arrested 172 French resistance fighters in Chansol and killed 83 of them.

　　On June 10th 1941, the German army broke the non-aggression pact and invaded the Soviet Union. The French communists joined in large numbers and the resistance was organized. Most of the maquis were based in the Brittany region and the mountainous areas of southern France, and they waged guerrilla warfare against the German army. The maquis gathered in the Champoléon Valley. The Germans pursued the resistance into the mountains and machine-gunned them. On November 12th and 13th 1943, the Germans rounded up the resistance in Pont du Fossé. 

Teruko Saito, who was 25 years old when she was exposed to the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, received treatment for her bomb-related injuries at Tokyo Imperial University Hospital.

The Russo-Ukrainian War broke out on February 24, 2022, and on the 13th day, March 8, the body of a 6-year-old girl who had been killed by shelling in Mariupol was exhumed from the rubble of the ruins.

　　 The Russo-Ukrainian War broke out on February 24th 2022, and on the 13th day, March 8th, the body of a 6-year-old girl who had been killed by Russian shelling of Mariupol, a city on the Sea of Azov, was exhumed from the rubble of her ruined house. On March 8th, the body of 6-year-old Tanya Moroz was pulled from the ruins of her home. Tanya was taken to hospital after being pulled from her home, but the intensive care unit had collapsed three days earlier after being bombed by the Russian air force, and Tanya did not survive. The Russian army not only killed Tanya, but also her mother.

　　The Russian army cut off the water supply to Ukraine, and the girl spent eight days alone after her mother was killed in a Russian shelling, and died of dehydration. The Russian army blockaded Mariupol, depriving 500,000 residents of water, electricity, heating and communication. Blocking all entrances and exits, the city was trapped and on the verge of a humanitarian catastrophe. The local residents of Mariupol were caught in a humanitarian disaster trap, and all attempts to deliver food and medicine to Mariupol were immediately blocked by the Russian military.

　　The Ukrainian authorities tried to evacuate people from Mariupol. The Russian military is holding 300,000 civilians in Mariupol hostage and preventing humanitarian evacuations despite agreements. The Russian military is blocking both evacuations and humanitarian transport with shelling. Officials in Mariupol reported that the 300,000 civilians had been trapped for days by the fighting in Mariupol, a strategic port on the Sea of Azov, deprived of water, food, electricity and access to humanitarian aid. On March 8, it was announced that 52 children had been killed in Ukraine by Russian forces in the 13-day war.

Warning:On March 8, 2022, the body of 6-year-old Tanya was pulled from the ruins of the building. Russia killed not only Tanya but also her mother.

On the Western Front of World War I, in October 1919, shortly after the outbreak of fighting between French and German troops in the northern French manufacturing town of Lille, the streets of Lille were strewn with the bodies of many other warhorses and soldiers.

   This photograph was taken on a street in Lille, a manufacturing town in northern France, in October 1919, shortly after fighting broke out between French and German troops on the Western Front of World War I. The streets of Lille were strewn with the bodies of dead soldiers and many other war horses. The German army occupied the town of Lille on August 21, and it was the target of French artillery and attacks for several months. The two armies tried to drive each other out.

    The First World War broke out on July 28th 1914, and in the early stages of the war, the situation was not good for the Allies. The Germans invaded Belgium and France under a well-planned strategy, and the Allies retreated, with many prisoners taken. The German occupation of Lille began on October 13th 1914, and after 10 days of siege and heavy bombardment, 882 apartment blocks and office buildings and 1500 houses were destroyed. By the end of October 1914, the city of Lille was under German military control. In no time at all, Lille became a place where German soldiers could relax and escape the fighting.

    On August 20th 1914, the Germans crossed the Meuse River and occupied the city of Lille, just beyond the northern border of France. France and Britain were still in the process of hastily drawing up a coordinated plan and were not prepared for the German attack. The tenacity of the French and British armies stopped the German invasion in its tracks. After that, trench warfare became the main form of battle on the Western Front.

 

During the Battle of Iwo Jima in the Pacific War, around 20,000 Japanese soldiers were killed in the battle, most of them in cave-like tunnels. The American army used grenades, flamethrowers and sandbag bombs to completely destroy the Japanese army's cave positions.

 　During the Battle of Iwo Jima in the Pacific War, around 20,000 Japanese soldiers died in the battle in the cave-like tunnel. The American army used grenades, flamethrowers and sandbag bombs to destroy the Japanese army's cave positions one by one. The Battle of Iwo Jima became an extremely fierce battle with a high casualty rate in American military history. Over the first five days, the average daily casualty rate was over 1,200, with one in three of the Marines who landed dying or being wounded. In the first 50 hours, the American casualties exceeded 3,000.

　　The Japanese army waged a fierce defense for over five weeks after the American army landed on Iwo Jima on February 19, 1945. The Japanese army was annihilated through relentless close-quarters attacks from caves and other strongholds. The annihilation of the Japanese army through suicide attacks terrified the Allied forces and the American people. The Allied forces feared that a far greater number of casualties would be incurred in the invasion of the Japanese mainland.

　　In the Battle of Iwo Jima, the number of casualties among the American offensive forces exceeded those of the Japanese defensive forces. The American forces suffered a staggering number of casualties, with approximately 7,000 of the landing force and fleet personnel killed in action and 19,000 wounded. At the end of the battle, the combat capability of each American division was less than 50%.

　　This was suggested in the book “History of the Pacific War” written by Admiral C.W. Nimitz, Commander of the US Pacific Fleet at the time. The statistics for the number of Japanese and American soldiers killed and wounded in action were given as rough estimates. The current confirmed number is 20,129, including 12,723 from the Army and 7,406 from the Navy. In addition, dozens of the residents of Iwo Jima at the time were conscripted into the Japanese army and unable to evacuate, and they shared the fate of the army and were killed in action.

　　The number of American military personnel killed in the Battle of Iwo Jima was 6,821 in total: 5,931 Marines, 881 Navy personnel, and 9 Army personnel. The Japanese army suffered 12,850 casualties, and the navy suffered 7,050 casualties, giving a total of 19,900 casualties for the Japanese army.

　　The number of battle casualties in the Battle of Iwo Jima was 21,865 in total, with 19,920 battle casualties among the US Marine Corps, 1,917 battle casualties among the Navy, and 28 battle casualties among the Army. 736 Japanese Army personnel and 736 Navy personnel were wounded, for a total of 1,033 wounded. The number of casualties was 28,686 for the American forces and 20,933 for the Japanese forces, with the American offensive forces outnumbering the Japanese defensive forces by 7,753.

The countless bodies at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in April 1945 were bodies that had been piled up after prisoners had been shot dead by Nazi Germany during the Holocaust.

　　The countless bodies at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in April 1945 were photographed as evidence of the Holocaust, and conveyed the horrific conditions of the Nazi death camps. These were the bodies of prisoners who had been shot and then piled up. Some of the bodies in the pile had a slim chance of survival. The bodies were naked or partially clothed. The bodies were a gruesome sight, skeletons covered in skin, all their muscles gone. There were also the bodies of small children, mixed in with the adults. Around the camp, hundreds of bodies lay scattered, often piled five or six high.

　　The Bergen-Belsen concentration camp was liberated by the British Army on April 15th 1945. The British soldiers found around 60,000 prisoners inside. Most of the prisoners were half-starved and seriously ill. In addition, 13,000 bodies were lying around the camp without being buried. From 1941 to 1945, almost 20,000 Soviet prisoners of war and another 50,000 prisoners died in the camp. Overcrowding, food shortages, and poor hygiene led to outbreaks of infectious diseases such as typhus, tuberculosis, typhoid, and dysentery. More than 35,000 people died in the first few months of 1945, just before and after liberation.

　　As the Allied forces approached Germany at the end of 1944 and beginning of 1945, Bergen-Belsen became a camp for tens of thousands of prisoners evacuated from camps near the front. The rate of death among prisoners at Bergen-Belsen accelerated markedly in December 1944 with the mass transfer of prisoners from other camps. From 1943 to the end of 1944, about 3,100 people died. From January to mid-April 1945, the number of deaths rose sharply to about 35,000. Between April 15 and the end of June 1945, a further 14,000 prisoners died in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp under British military authorities.

 

During the Vietnam War, on March 9th 1965, in Can Tho, in the province of Zala, Vietnam, a soldier from the South Vietnamese Liberation Front was killed by the American army after attacking with a basket full of grenades in his hands. His body lay face down in a field.

　　During the Vietnam War, on March 9th 1965, in Can Tho, Gia Lai Province, Vietnam, a soldier from the South Vietnamese Liberation Front who had attacked with a basket full of grenades in his hands was killed by the American army, and his body fell face down in a field in Can Tho. Located in the central highlands of Vietnam, Can Tho was the site of a camp where around 400 soldiers of the ethnic minority, trained by American soldiers and special forces, were on duty. On March 8, around 1000 soldiers of the communist forces attacked the camp, armed with guns and baskets full of grenades. The next morning, on March 9th, the bodies of over 100 Liberation Front soldiers hung from the barbed wire surrounding the encampment. The American military suffered 33 casualties.

　　In 1965, the United States rapidly increased its military presence in South Vietnam. During the Vietnam War, the communist-controlled Viet Cong (VC) gained influence over many rural areas. The South Vietnamese government was losing the Vietnam War. Operation Rolling Thunder was a gradual and sustained aerial bombardment campaign by the US military. The US Navy and the Republic of Vietnam Air Force (RVNAF) bombed North Vietnam from March 2, 1965 to November 2, 1968, and the Vietnam War became a quagmire.

　　In the March 19th 1965 issue of the American magazine Time, an article entitled “Victory at Khe Sanh” reported on the American military victory and introduced the diary of a young North Vietnamese lieutenant who had been killed. It described the arduous journey along the “Ho Chi Minh Trail” that had been ongoing since 1964. This was a supply route created by North Vietnam by clearing the jungle to transport supplies and troops to the South Vietnam Liberation Front via Laos and Cambodia. He left behind the words, “My life is very hard. I am always hungry and exposed to bombs dropped by bombers at all times.”

 

On August 19, 1942, the bodies of Canadian soldiers killed by the Germans during the Battle of Dieppe on the Western Front of World War II lay scattered along the Dieppe coast in France.

      On August 19th 1942, the bodies of Canadian soldiers killed by the Germans during the Battle of Dieppe on the Western Front of World War II lay scattered among the wreckage of ships, barges and amphibious vehicles that had landed on the beach at Dieppe, France.

      At 5:00 am on August 19th, soldiers from the Royal Canadian Regiment approached the beach at Puy, a small seaside village 2km east of the Dieppe coast in France. Sensing the presence of the Canadian troops, the Germans targeted the landing craft, which were still 10m from the shore. At 5:07 in the morning, the first Canadian soldiers to lower the landing craft ramp rushed forward amid the sound of machine gun and mortar fire. Canadian soldiers were hit by bullets and mortars. Some took refuge in the seawall that ran along the coast.

    On the left side, near Bernval, which was several kilometers away, and near Dieppe, Pourville, and Valenville, other Canadian battalions landed, and many soldiers were killed by German machine gun fire and hit by mortar shells. Some platoons broke through the German defensive line, but they were no match for the powerful force. At 11:00 a.m., the order to retreat was given. The Canadian Navy soldiers did their best to recover as many of the assault troops' casualties as possible. As the German air raids ended and the tide came in, the bodies of the Canadian soldiers who remained on the beach were washed away by the waves.

      On August 19, 1942, the ground troops that took part in the air raid included 4,963 soldiers and officers from the Canadian 2nd Division, 1,005 British troops, 50 American troops, and 15 French troops. In the Dieppe Raid, 907 Canadian soldiers died, 271 British soldiers died, 3 American soldiers died, and 311 German soldiers died. A fleet of 237 ships, including 6 destroyers, and landing barges brought them close to the shore. In the air, RAF and RCAF bombers and fighters took part in the operation. Before the Canadian soldiers reached the bridge over the River Sa, the Germans had piled up the dead and wounded on the bridge, with a wall of machine guns and anti-tank guns.

At the research institute and clinic of the Hiroshima ABCC Red Cross Hospital, a Japanese doctor examined a primary school student who had been exposed to the atomic bomb in Hiroshima two years earlier on October 26, 1947.

Bodies of Palestinians, including children killed in Israeli strikes, according to medics, lie on the floor, amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, at Al-Ahli Arab Baptist hospital in Gaza City January 8, 2025.

      Amid the continuing conflict between Israel and Hamas, at Al-Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital in Gaza City, according to medical personnel, the bodies of Palestinians, including a child who was killed in an Israeli air strike on January 8, 2025, were lying on the floor. On January 9, outside Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Bala, in central Gaza,dozens of people attended the funeral prayers for the Palestinians who had died in the Israeli air raids the day before. In the hospital mortuary, some Palestinians were seen kneeling and saying goodbye to their relatives, and then slamming the refrigerator door in their grief.

      On January 9th 2025, the Gaza Ministry of Health announced that more than 46,000 Palestinians had died in the war between Israel and Hamas. The total number of Palestinian deaths was 46,006, and the number of injured was 109,378. More than half of the dead were women and children. It is unclear how many of the dead were combatants and how many were civilians. The Israeli military carried out nighttime attacks on the areas of Gaza City, Khan Younis, and Al-Mawasi, which is considered a safe zone, and took the lives of young children. Amid the continuing conflict between Israel and Hamas, Palestinians inspected the site of an Israeli air strike on a civilian home in Nuseirat, in the central Gaza Strip, on January 9, 2025.

    The Israeli military said that it had killed more than 17,000 armed Hamas militants without evidence. It said that it had avoided harming civilians, but that the deaths of Palestinians were Hamas's fault because Hamas was operating in residential areas. The Israeli military repeatedly attacked militants hiding in shelters and hospitals, killing women and children. The Israeli military caused widespread destruction in the Gaza Strip, displacing around 90% of the population of 2.3 million. Hundreds of thousands of people were packed into vast tent camps along the Mediterranean coast, with limited access to food and other necessities.

During the American expedition to Korea, on June 11th 1871, Korean soldiers were killed in the town of Gwangseong on the island of Ganghwa. After the battle of Gwangseong, the bodies of over 350 Korean soldiers were scattered around the area.

　　During the American expedition to Korea, on June 11th 1871, Korean soldiers were killed in the town of Gwangseong on Ganghwa Island. After the battle of Gwangseong, the bodies of over 350 Korean soldiers were scattered around the area. American soldiers looked down on the bodies. On June 10th 1871, the American army attacked the towns of Chosa and Deokjin on Ganghwa Island. After a fierce bombardment, the US Asiatic Fleet landed marines on Ganghwa Island. They took control of Chosa-jin and Deokjin on June 10th, and Gwangseong-jin on June 11th. In this battle, the Joseon army suffered over 350 casualties, and the US army suffered 3 casualties.

　　The U.S. Army and Navy were stationed in Korea in 1866 after the General Sherman, a merchant ship, was attacked and all 21 crew members were killed during a visit to Korea. In order to assess the incident and support the U.S. diplomatic mission to negotiate trade and politics with the Korean Peninsula, the U.S. Army sent an expedition to Korea in 1871. The U.S. Army regarded the Korean nation as a weak country and demonstrated its military power. The American military commanders had the right to bring heavily armed warships into the waters of the Korean peninsula, and they ignored the sovereignty of the Korean nation. In the Korean nation, the Sinmi Western Disturbance broke out in the year of Sinmi in 1871, and the American military expeditioned to Korea. The first American military action against the Korean peninsula was mainly carried out in Ganghwa Island and its surrounding areas in 1871.

　　On June 1st 1871, two American warships were attacked on the Han River, where the coastal batteries of the Joseon Kingdom were located. The Koreans attacked the fortifications where they had been ambushed. The governor of Ganghwa Island offered to ease the situation, but the Americans refused. The American commander, Admiral Roeliff Brinkerhoff, refused to accept an apology from the Joseon Kingdom, and punitive operations were launched. The isolationist stance of the Chosun Dynasty government and the imperialist stance of the Americans turned a diplomatic expedition into a military clash. On June 10th, around 650 Americans landed on Ganghwa Island, occupied several forts, and killed 350 Chosun Dynasty soldiers, with only three American soldiers killed. Chosun Dynasty refused to negotiate with the Americans until 1882.
