Nanjing Massacre Museum 12. Plaque on Memorial Stone
The Japanese soldiers raped an estimated 20,000 women during the six weeks of
the Nanjing Massacre and most were brutally killed afterwards. The Japanese
soldiers even raped girls less than ten years old, women over seventy years
old, pregnant women, and nuns. Rampant raping took place in the streets or at
religious worshiping places during the day. Many women were gang raped. Some
Japanese even forced fathers to rape their daughters, sons to rape their
mothers, etc. Those who resisted were killed immediately.
