WorldSeptember 18 Incident: A Pivotal Moment in the World Anti-Fascist War

The September 18, 1931 incident began when Japan’s Kwantung Army detonated explosives near Shenyang and falsely blamed Chinese forces, using the blast to attack the city. Japan then overran northeast China and established Manchukuo in 1932. The incident marked the start of China’s 14-year resistance war and an early chapter in the global struggle against fascist aggression.
