During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression from 1931 to 1945, the Government of the Republic of China lost the Battle of Nanking, and its capital, Nanjing, fell on December 13, 1937. After the occupation of Nanjing, under the command of Japanese commander Matsui Ishigen and the commander of the 6th Division, Gu Shoufu, the Japanese army carried out a series of heinous atrocities such as organized, planned, and premeditated large-scale massacres, rapes, arson, and robbery against the residents of Nanjing.
(The Tokyo Nippon Shimbun in December 1937 reported that Japanese lieutenants Toshiaki Xiang and Takeshi Noda met on their way to Nanjing to engage in a "killing contest," during which they claimed to have killed 106 and 105 people each, and after the war, the two were sentenced to death by the Nanjing Military Tribunal.)
(Captured Chinese soldiers.) In December 1937, thousands of captured soldiers in Nanjing were brutally executed.
The brutality of the Japanese army began with the capture of Nanjing on December 13, 1937, and lasted for more than six weeks. According to the investigation of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East and the Nanjing Military Tribunal after World War II, more than 300,000 Chinese civilians and prisoners of war were killed by the Japanese army during the massacre, about 20,000 women were raped by the Japanese army in the first month of the massacre, and one-third of the city of Nanjing was set on fire by the Japanese army.

On February 27, 2014, the Seventh Session of the Standing Committee of the Twelfth National People's Congress of China voted to designate December 13 of each year as the National Day of Commemoration for the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre. China's establishment of the National Day of Commemoration for the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre in the form of legislation has demonstrated the firm stand of the Chinese people in opposing wars of aggression, defending human dignity and safeguarding world peace.
Although many years have passed, this dark time is still vividly remembered. We must not forget this history, nor do we dare to forget it. Let us remember history and pay tribute to our compatriots who died together!
