84 years ago today
The invading Japanese army captured Nanjing
In just 6 weeks, we have lost more than 300,000 compatriots
Laughter and prosperity are gone, and corpses are strewn across the field
The millennium city has become a "hell on earth"
This morning
Memorial Hall of compatriots killed in the Nanjing Massacre of the Japanese invasion of China
Raise the national flag and lower the flag at half-mast to mourn
Air defense sirens sounded throughout Nanjing
And a minute of silence
This image must be seen
This is the Nanjing Massacre discovered so far
The only true movie
At that time, the American John Maggie
Risk your life with a 16mm camera
Photograph the atrocities of the Japanese army
It was he who was in the courtroom of the Tokyo trial
Testify for our countless dead compatriots
There are already 11 digits in 2021
Survivors of the Nanjing Massacre have died
Every victim of the Nanjing Massacre
They are all wounds of the country and pains of the nation
Every survivor of the Nanjing Massacre
They are all witnesses to this history
Come this year
11 survivors have passed away
They did not wait for the aggressor to apologize
Witnesses are withering away
But history cannot be forgotten
Survivors of the 2021 Nanjing Massacre
Hundreds of people are recorded
In December 1937, the Invading Japanese Army created the Nanjing Massacre, in which more than 300,000 unarmed Chinese civilians and soldiers who laid down their arms were brutally killed, leaving the survivors of the disaster with indelible memories of pain and suffering.
