Domenikon massacre
The Domenikon Massacre ((ギリシア語: Σφαγή του Δομένικου), (イタリア語: La strage di Domenikon)) was a violent reprisal by the Italian Royal Army's 24th Infantry Division Pinerolo during the Axis Occupation of Greece. On 16–17 February 1943, Italian troops executed a total of 175 male civilians from the Domenikon, Mesohori, Amouri and Damasi villages. Domenikon and Mesohori were also set ablaze.
==Background==
In the aftermath of the Allied defeat during the Battle of Greece, and the subsequent Axis occupation of Greece, a group of 72 Greek People's Liberation Army (GPLA) rebels created a base outside the village of Oxia, close to Domenikon. The guerrillas received an intelligence report stating that a force of 350 Italian and Vlach troops were planning to assemble in the village of Mesohori in order to conduct a counter insurgency operation in the Verdikousia area. The GPLA fighters decided to ambush an Italian column in support of their comrades on Mount Olympus.
In the early morning of 16 February 1943, the rebels positioned themselves on the Mauritsa hillock two kilometers south of Domenikon, but plans of organising an ambush at the Asprogia hill were abandoned at the last moment due to erosion. At 10.00 a.m., an Italian column consisting of three trucks and three motorcycles emerged on a road opposite the hillock. The rebels fired at the Italians immediately before the whole convoy had entered the engagement area, thus allowing an unseen motorcycle at the end of the column to escape and make its way to the Axis encampment at Mesohori. Nine soldiers were killed and a general was severely wounded, before the rebels retreated to the Profitis Ilias mountain.〔
