Wang Xiuying, a survivor of the Nanjing Massacre, passed away Wednesday in eastern China's Jiangsu Province, reducing the number of registered survivors of the massacre to less than 100. In 1937, Wang Xiuying and her family of 10 took shelter in the refugee camp where she witnessed the killing of her two family members by the Japanese soldiers. The massacre victims are the living evidence of the mass killing waged by the Japanese invaders in the city. Ten survivors of the Nanjing Massacre have died since January this year. From Dec. 13, 1937 to January 1938, more than 300,000 Chinese civilians and unarmed soldiers were killed in the massacre carried out by Japanese invaders after the city fell into the hands of the Japanese army.
