Sinchon Massacre

The Sinchon Massacre (Korean: 신천 양민학살 사건, Hanja: 信川良民虐殺事件,[1] Sinchon civilian Massacre[1]) was an alleged mass murder of civilians between 17 October and 7 December 1950,[1] in or near the town of Sinchon, during the outbreak of the Korean War. It is widely acknowledged that tens of thousands of civilians died during the war, but the reasons for this are debated. Sinchon is currently part of South Hwanghae Province, North Korea.
