China: Chinese patriot held by Japanese agents, Zhabei, Shanghai, 1932. A note in Chinese attached to the photograph records that the prisoner was murdered immediately after the photograph was taken. The January 28 Incident (28 January 28 - 3 March 1932) was a short war between the armies of the Republic of China and the Empire of Japan, before official hostilities of the Second Sino-Japanese War commenced in 1937. In Chinese literature it is known as the January 28 Incident, while in Western sources it is often called the Shanghai War of 1932 or, more simply, the Shanghai Incident.
