A document containing detailed information about military personnel from Unit 731, a Japanese germ warfare unit during World War II, is unveiled shortly before the 93rd anniversary of the September 18 incident. Jointly released by the Exhibition Hall of Evidence of Crimes Committed by Unit 731 of the Japanese Imperial Army and a Japanese scholar, Matsuno Makoto, the 267-page document contains personnel files of 100 members of the unit, including names, educational backgrounds, appointment dates, promotion records, resumes, and more. Most of the recorded personnel graduated from Japanese medical universities and became key figures in Unit 731, a top-secret biological and chemical warfare research base established in Harbin as the nerve center for Japanese biological warfare in China and Southeast Asia during the World War II.
