Destruction of Bulgarians in Greek occupied Macedonia 1913[edit]

In the aftermath of the retreat of the Bulgarian forces during the Second Balkan War the Greek military engaged in a campaign of systematic destruction of the non-combatant population of the region of Macedonia to the north of Thesalonniki. According to the independent observers this amounted to 16,000 Bulgarian homes destroyed. Over 120 villages were sacked, and after systematic pillaging and violation of the women inhabitants, the villages were burnt. Thousands of civilian bulgarians were confirmed murdered or missing. Eyewitness testimony was corroborated by the greek correspondence, which fell in the hands of Bulgarian forces during military operations.[1] Numerous crimes against international conventions were registered by the Greek forces among which were firing of artillery shells on orphanages, hospitals (among which those run by foreign embassies like French and Russian) the usage of modified cut bullets (dum-dum) which cause explosion in the tissue causing wounds by order of magnitude more severe than those of conventional bullets.

Hello I did add source. It is described as genocide however in 1913 there was no established term. The first well known established act of genocide when the term is coined is in first world war - the armenian genocide. The definition of genocide is this "he deliberate killing of a large group of people, especially those of a particular ethnic group or nation." this is taken from Oxford dictionary. Please read the source and look at what it was and make your own judgement of what it is based on the facts. In any case I have removed the term genocide in the title to accommodate. If you feel that genocide is the right term (which I do) we can add again. ~shurbanm
