The massacre of Badajoz occurred in the days after the Battle of Badajoz during the Spanish Civil War. Between 1,341 and 4,000 civilian and military supporters of the Second Spanish Republic, were killed by the Nationalist forces following the seizure of the town of Badajoz on August 14, 1936.
This very brief extract of a much larger documentary covering the whole of the Spanish civil war, includes first hand witness reports as well as historic photo and video coverage of the events leading up to the battle as well as the aftermath.
