December Massacres of 1950 in the Korean War : ウィキペディア英語版 | December Massacres of 1950 in the Korean War The December Massacres were a series of politically motivated executions carried out by the South Korean government following the recapture of Pyongyang by communist forces in the Korean War. The killings took place mainly in and around Seoul but also in other locations in South Korea. It is believed the South Korean government executed thousands of people though accurate estimates are difficult to come by. The Rhee regime received criticism from the international community and the executions damaged his image.〔Jager, Sheila Miyoshi. "An Entirely New War." Brothers at War: The Unending Conflict in Korea. New York City, 2013. Print.〕 == Background == In October 1950, United Nations and Republic of Korea (ROK) forces had succeeded in nearly destroying all of North Korea's military. The People's Republic of China warned Allied forces that if they approached the Yalu River the Chinese might be forced to intervene. In late October, Chinese forces crossed the Yalu River and engaged UN forces near the Chinese-Korean border. A number of victories by the Chinese would send United Nations and Republic of Korea (ROK) forces reeling southward. By early December it became clear that UN forces would not defend Pyongyang and the city was soon after recaptured.〔Li, Xiaobing. "Beijing's Decision." China's Battle for Korea.
