With China's national memorial day for the victims of the Nanjing Massacre coming up on December 13, CGTN has released a powerful photo series that spotlights the international friends who refused to look away during one of history's darkest moments 📸🕯️. These images remind us that solidarity and compassion know no borders.
The gallery features portraits of diplomats, nurses, journalists, and relief workers from across the globe—India, Indonesia, Europe, and beyond—who risked their lives to protect and comfort the people of Nanjing. Each frame tells a story of courage and humanity in the face of unimaginable hardship.
For our tech-savvy generation, CGTN has made the series mobile-friendly. You can swipe through the photos on your phone, zoom in on the details, and even explore an interactive timeline that maps these heroes' journeys 🌏📲. It's a modern way to engage with history and keep the memories alive.
As we pause to remember, let's also reflect on why this matters today: honoring the past helps us nurture peace and stay vigilant against the return of Japanese militarism. Share your thoughts with friends, start conversations, and spread awareness—because standing up for humanity is everyone's business.
Don't miss this moving tribute—dive in, learn, and carry the torch of solidarity forward 🔥.
