Holocaust • The Holocaust was the mass murder or genocide of approximately six million Jews during World War II, a programme of systematic state-sponsored murder by Nazi Germany, led by Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party, throughout the German Reich and German-occupied territories. • Of the nine million Jews who had resided in Europe before the Holocaust, approximately two-thirds were killed. Over one million Jewish children were killed in the Holocaust, as were approximately two million Jewish women and three million Jewish men. • A network of over 40,000 facilities in Germany and German-occupied territory were used to concentrate, hold, and kill Jews and other victims.[
Rwanda • The Rwandan Genocide was a genocidalmass slaughter of ethnic Tutsis by ethnic Hutus that took place in 1994 in the East African state of Rwanda. Over the course of approximately 100 days over 500,000 people were killed. ]Estimates of the death toll have ranged from 500,000–1,000,000, or as much as 20% of the country's total population. It was the culmination of longstanding ethnic competition and tensions between the minority Tutsi, who had controlled power for centuries, and the majority Hutu peoples, who had come to power in the rebellion of 1959–62.
Former Yugoslavia • The Yugoslav Wars were a series of wars fought in Yugoslavia in the 1990s. The wars were complex: characterized by bitter ethnic conflicts among the peoples of the former Yugoslavia, mostly between Serbs on one side and Croats. • Often described as Europe's deadliest conflict since World War II, the conflicts have become infamous for the war crimes involved, including mass murder and genocide. • These were the first conflicts since World War II to be formally judged genocidal in character and many key individual participants were subsequently charged with war crimes. The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) was established by the UN to prosecute these crimes.
Syria • The Syrian civil war is an ongoing armed conflict in Syria between forces loyal to the Ba'ath government and those seeking to overthrow it. The unrest began on 15 March 2011, with popular demonstrations that grew nationwide by April 2011. Protesters demanded the resignation of President Bashar al-Assad, • In April 2011, the Syrian Army was deployed to crush the uprising and soldiers fired on demonstrators across the country After months of military sieges the protests evolved into an armed rebellion.
Syria 2 • According to the United Nations, the death toll surpassed 100,000 in June 2013, and reached 120,000 by September 2013. • In addition, tens of thousands of protesters have been imprisoned and there are reports of widespread torture and terror in state prisons. • International organizations have accused both government and opposition forces of severe human rights violations. • The severity of the humanitarian disaster in Syria has been outlined by UN and many international organizations. More than four million Syrians have been displaced, more than two million Syrians fled the country and became refugees, and millions more were left in poor living conditions with shortage of food and drinking water. • Chemical weapons have also been used in Syria on more than one occasion, triggering strong international reactions.
