GUERNICA 70 YEARS AGO
FASCIST ARIAL TERROR ATTACK
"Guernica", by P. Picasso, 1937
"Guernica, a city with 5,000 inhabitants.. has been literally razed to the ground. Bomb craters can be seen in the streets. Simply wonderful.", April 26, 1937 the commander of the 'Condor Legion' wrote in his war diary.
It has been exactly 70 years since German and Italian fighter planes backing the fascist forces of Gen. Francisco Franco in the Spanish Civil War leveled this historic Basque town on April 26, 1937.
According to the Basque government 1,654 citizens were killed and nearly 900 injured during the bomb attack. (Der Spiegel, Germany, 4.26)
Actually it was the first arial terror attack against civilian targets in the entire history.
