3. Soviet Mass Rapes in Germany
During the final months of World War II, as Soviet forces advanced into Germany, they committed widespread sexual violence against German women. Estimates suggest that up to two million women were raped during this period, with approximately 100,000 victims in Berlin alone. These atrocities were largely unpunished and remained underreported for decades. The Soviet High Command was aware of the misconduct but took minimal action to prevent it. (bbc.com)
