On the 37th anniversary of the June 4th Tiananmen Square massacre, the Chinese Edition of The Epoch Times has exclusively obtained more than 2,000 previously unreleased historical photographs, exposing a period of history the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has long attempted to erase. In the spring of 1989, a student-led democracy movement erupted in Beijing and spread nationwide. Millions of citizens peacefully protested against corruption and called for democratic reforms. In response, top CCP officials deployed military forces, launching a brutal crackdown with tanks and machine guns on June 4th. Non-governmental estimates place the death toll between several thousand and over 10,000. For 37 years, the CCP has suppressed the truth, labeling the peaceful demonstrations a "counter-revolutionary riot.” The newly uncovered archive—comprising over 2,000 color and black-and-white photos—was captured by an official photographer who witnessed the events firsthand. Before his passing, he entrusted the long-hidden film to The Epoch Times for public release. Fulfilling the photographer's final wish, The Epoch Times is publishing these images in installments to honor the victims and remind the world of the regime's atrocities. In response to the release, CCP authorities have reportedly begun harassing and threatening individuals suspected of involvement, including both Chinese and U.S. citizens. 📺 Watch NTD News 24/7 on cable, broadcast, and streaming: https://www.ntd.com/watch -- 🧶More NTD Programs: https://www.ntd.com/programs?utm_source=YouTube&utm_medium=SocialM -- 🇺🇸 Stay updated with breaking news, special reports, and LIVE COVERAGE on NTD: https://ept.ms/NTDlive_ -- 🔵Sign up for our newsletter to stay informed with NTD News. 👉https://www.ntd.com/newsletter.htm?utm_source=YouTube.
