Japanese monk Yoshio Hasegawa, front, chants scriptures during a memorial to mourn for the victims of the Nanjing Massacre at the Museum of Victims in Nanjing Massacre by Japanese Invaders in Nanjing city, east China's Jiangsu province, 13 December 2015. Some 78 years after soldiers from the Japanese Army massacred residents of Nanjing, Chinese authorities held a memorial ceremony on Sunday (13 December 2015), one year after designating December 13 as a national memorial. This year's ceremony in the eastern Chinese city comes after China's successful bid in October to include documents on the military rampage in the "Memory of the World" program by UNESCO, the U.N. cultural agency. China in 2014 designated December 13 as a national memorial day for the victims and for the first time held a state observance of the tragedy that Beijing says killed more than 300, 000.
