In February 1945, during the Battle of Manila, one of the most brutal atrocities of World War II unfolded.
As American forces fought to retake Manila from Japanese troops, trapped Japanese naval units carried out mass killings across the city. Civilians were shot, burned alive, and massacred inside homes, hospitals, and churches.
In just a few weeks, around 100,000 civilians were killed, and Manila — once one of the most beautiful cities in Asia — was left in ruins.
The Manila Massacre remains one of the most devastating yet often forgotten tragedies of World War II history.
This video aims to remember the victims and preserve the memory of what happened.
