Category:Massacres

Wikimedia Commons has media related to Massacres.

A massacre is a specific incident which involves the killing of people, although not necessarily a crime against humanity. The numbers of killed range from just a few people to many millions. The common factor for massacre is multiple people being violently killed by other people, though intentionality and legality of the killings are not distinguishing factors, unlike mass murder.
