The Katyn Massacre: A Hidden Tragedy

In 1940, the Katyn Massacre became one of World War II’s most harrowing and controversial events. Approximately 22,000 Polish military officers, intellectuals, and prisoners of war were executed by the Soviet secret police (NKVD) in the Katyn Forest near Smolensk, Russia. This massacre was part of a broader Soviet effort to eliminate potential Polish leaders and suppress resistance. For decades, the Soviet Union falsely blamed Nazi Germany for the atrocity, and it wasn’t until 1990 that they officially admitted responsibility. The Katyn Massacre is a deeply significant chapter in Polish history, representing the brutal repression and suffering endured by Poland during the war. 🕊️🇵🇱
